The original v3.10 kernel release is now 2½ years old, and you probably
have a pile of both longterm and distro patches on top. I'm afraid the
upstream can't help you much either.

Your best bet is probably to figure out what change between your kernel
versions broke things. If those -327 and -229 suffixes mean anything, it
might not be a huge task.

BR,
