Did you read the next line? "The remaining work consists of changes for XFS
and a number of other filesystems;" The easiest way to find out which
changes go to which version would be by reading the kernel changelog. My
guess is the additional changes was only completed in 3.12.

IMHO a more valid question would be "why would you need an older version"?
Even for an acient centos6, you can use kernel-ml from elrepo (currently at
4.8.4). Or use Oracle's uek (4.1).
