This seams to be against version 1.15 of the VIA driver. -pre13 only seams
to have 1.14 so I got rejects when I tried to apply it:

Hunk #1 FAILED at 12.
Hunk #2 succeeded at 458 (offset -8 lines).
Hunk #3 succeeded at 1973 (offset -15 lines).
Hunk #4 succeeded at 2005 (offset -15 lines).

Hunk #13 succeeded at 2481 (offset -15 lines).

The rejects are these harmless ones:
