Dear Krzysztof,
thank you for using OpenVZ.
Unfortunately we cannot accept your proposal.
Drivers are not our business, we inherit it from Red Hat and prefer do not change it without strong needs.
I can advise you to prepare dkms package with new driver, it allows you to use it on affected nodes.
...
===========================
This resulted in 2 RedHat bugs filed:
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1276853
