Those patches do not contain any subpixel antialiasing code, they just call
the freetype LCD filter when it's available. There is no actual subpixel
antialiasing being done if it's disabled in freetype. In fact, those
patches even REMOVE hardcoded subpixel filters, in favor of using the
freetype ones.
