I can promise to handle bug reports about this (if any). Given that we
don't have the patch in SLE11 SP2 through SP4, I believe they shouldn't
be too frequent.
It was removed from SLES 11 SP2 by:
commit c0d37b28a0b0969ddabaac9120ef3dcfdb165f43

remove patches.fixes/bridge-module-get-put.patch as it's not needed anymore.
Sadly lacks a reference, but I would say that the problem is that this
patch should have been deleted from the master branch at the time too,
but wasn't.
So not only I'm all from dropping it from the master branch, but I would
also suggest dropping it from the stable, openSUSE-13.1, openSUSE 13.2,
openSUSE-42.1, SLE12 and SLE12-SP1 branches. The refcount leak you found
is a good enough reason to drop the patch IMHO.
