That patch breaks driver initialization code
----------------------------------------
SCSI subsystem initialized
Loading sd_mod.ko module
Driver 'sd' needs updating - please use bus_type methods
Loading mptbase.ko module
Fusion MPT base driver 3.04.07

Loading mptscsih.ko module
Waiting for driver initialization.

Creating root device.
Mounting root filesystem.
mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root'
Setting up other filesystems.

with a popup dialog
"The CPU has been disabled by the guest operating system.
You will need to power off or reset the virtual machine at this point."
