I can tell you that if you try to make it work without the patch, you will eat
your hat. It causes a bunch of strange things to fail. In my case, I saw a
situation in which, during some edge cases, the kernel would drop the "fin"
packet for LVS connections. Fun stuff.
I highly doubt your problem has anything to do with the patch, though. It
didn't change any behavior for us.
