The patch got merged upstream yesterday:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commit;h=cfb046cb800ba306b211fbbe4ac633486e11055f

As it was tagged with:
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # for 3.8

I expect that it will be available for 3.8.1 after the end of the
merge window.

Regards,
Mauro
