I've patched my kernel with the patch, but there are still undefined 
references.

arch/x86_64/kernel/built-in.o(.init.text+0x41a6): In function 
`dmi_disable_acpi':
: undefined reference to `acpi_force'
arch/x86_64/kernel/built-in.o(.init.text+0x4217): In function `force_acpi_ht':
: undefined reference to `acpi_force'
arch/x86_64/ia32/built-in.o(.data+0x898): In function `ia32_sys_call_table':
: undefined reference to `compat_get_mempolicy'
kernel/built-in.o(.data+0x1e70): undefined reference to `unknown_nmi_panic'
kernel/built-in.o(.data+0x1e88): undefined reference to 
`proc_unknown_nmi_panic'
