So are you saying that it is impossible to add support in the kernel 3.9?
If you are a Linux kernel developer (or hire one), it is possible to back-port the GTP-u module. Hoewver, this is a significant amount of work, and it is generally a very bad idea to use old kernels, for many reasons. So rather than using the developer resource for something that's useful in the future, you use that resource for catching up with the past.
3.9.x is not receiving any security fixes or bug fixes, check https://www.kernel.org/
It's a bit like insisting on Windows XP, even though it's not supported anymore for a long time.
