My suggestion would be to simply ignore discover. It is not used anymore and the fact that it's un(der)maintained does not surprise me. A simple follow-up to the bug report announcing the removal of the old interface per kernel version X would be appreciated. If it actually results in a build failure, it will probably get updated quickly enough. The available patch will help with that.
