I completely disabled all patches and have done a bit of testing. It appears to me what has happened is the previous (4.8) firmware allowed the text to encroach into the footer region a bit, so long as it didn't cover the actual "page n of nn" text. I seem to recall the bottom menu covering a bit of text previously (which never bothered me).

The current firmware appears to be enforcing a minimum gap between the footer region and the text, so depending on the font size, style and metrics, this could become quite a gap.

Also, there is now a bit of whitespace at the top of the page, which didn't exist before. I don't actually mind that however.
