I generated the first prepatch for 2.6.25 (2.6.25-rc8-git4). You can find the changes in git:
- Dropped the unusual-devs patch, I submitted this one over a year ago and it should be merged right no, no idea why it still applies - There is no newer mactel patch. I would like to drop it, is this really still necessary? - There is no phc patch which applies. I was always against this patch, so what do we do about it? I'd like to drop it. - Updated acpi-dsdt-initrd and unionfs - Dropped the bugfix patches in 2.6.24
Any comments are appreciated, I will try building a kernel with this patches in a minute.
I don't think it's a bad thing to cut the fat, so to speak. However we'll need to be careful (and explicit) about dropping support for things people are already using, otherwise people are going to get some nasty surprises when they upgrade. -S
