if you want that patch to be built to the kernel either your best bet is to submit it upstream with the kernel.org folks. i doubt usually you can get it added to the kernel for Arch. since the devs tend to follow upstream very closely.
you can try to submit a feature request at https://bugs.archlinux.org/
for this patch you want to added.

Yes.   It is very, very, very unlikely that a patch not accepted upstream will make it into the kernel package.

Gonna try that. Unfortunatelly I need to repeat my steps every time a new kernel is released. That does cost a lot of time for me. So it would be easier for me if the patch were allready included.

Doing so

Yes. And everyone NOT needing the PX-253 stuff would have to repeat those steps every time a new kernel is released.

Good point
