Haven't tested on kernels that are not in Jessie. Given the new module
build infrastructure, I'm not even sure if kernels older than 3.16 are
supported anymore?
Given it builds for the kernels available in wheezy-backports and
newer, is it a problem for us? I'll look into it during the weekend.

Thanks for merging up all the branches.

Kind regards,
