The referenced commit is in
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen.git#xen/next-2.6.32  some people call the "pvops tree" but there's no reason to expect someone outside the Xen world to know that...

A better reference would have been 6b0b80ca7165 in
git://xenbits.xen.org/people/ianc/linux-2.6.git#upstream/dom0/backend/netback-history which is the precise branch that was flattened to make f942dc2552b8, which is the upstream commit that added netback, so this change is already in upstream.

Ian.
