If a patch is released stating a particular kernel version number, it will almost definitely apply to the stated version (depends on vendor patches, etc.). It may well apply to a later version, but there are no guarantees, since lines included in the patch may have changed between the kernel versions. Sometimes it won't apply automatically, but if there aren't too many changes in the patch you might be able to manually edit the file to apply the changes. Good luck!
