does this also apply to older generations? if not, make sure to update the mods.

I have no way to test this, since I don't have two systems, but according to Bulbapedia, it was already known and applied since Gen 5.
"If a Pokémon with this Ability is in the semi-invulnerable turn of a move like Fly, Magic Bounce will not activate."

Unless the title of this PR is wrong, this fix isn't technically correct. Magic bounce is not completely disabled during semi-invulnerability. For instance, if you use toxic with a poison pokemon to bypass the semi-invulnerability, magic bounce will proc on the toxic.

Also with lock on.

I guess that would make too much sense..

pyuk just tested it and Magic Bounce is disabled entirely while semi-invulnerable.

For hazards in particular, Gen 5 Magic Bounce does bounce hazards back while semi-invulnerable. In Gen 6+ hazards do not bounce while semi-invulnerable.
