No, I didn't. Thanks! Applied it but, unfortunately, didn't work.
Perhaps I'm missing some other patch. I'm compiling it from
the Greg's staging tree (branch staging-next):
	https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git/log/?h=staging-next

Btw, as I'm running Raspbian, and didn't want to use compat32 bits, 
I'm compiling the Kernel as an arm32 bits Kernel.

I did a small trick to build the DTB on arm32:

	ln -sf ../../../arm64/boot/dts/broadcom/bcm2837-rpi-3-b.dts arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm2837-rpi-3-b.dts
	ln -sf ../../../arm64/boot/dts/broadcom/bcm2837.dtsi arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm2837.dtsi
	git checkout arch/arm/boot/dts/Makefile
	sed "s,bcm2835-rpi-zero.dtb,bcm2835-rpi-zero.dtb bcm2837-rpi-3-b.dtb," a && mv a arch/arm/boot/dts/Makefile

I see.
