The prerelease patches will be updated as bugs are discovered and fixed.
The Devel patches as mentioned below are update sporadically, generally
whenever
the tree is upgraded to the next revision of linux.
The quickest way to get up to speed is to download the XFS cvs patch and

Once the the linux-xfs has been CVSatized, updates shouldn't require
much
network bandwidth.
% cvs -z3 update -d
should to the trick.
