This doesn't seem to be an official Linus' kernel because here the 3.2 kernel doesn't have this function (checked against Linus' official 3.2 release). It looks like this 3.8 change was introduced by Ben Hutchings in Linux stable for v3.2.44.
Does anyone has interest in adding the code to check for these stable releases?
Kind regards, Sven
