The 2.4.6 patch didn't apply cleanly to a pure kernel source ..

And in any case the patch I got hold of
linux-2.4.6-xfs-cvs-06212001.patch
contains all kinds of cvs and acl cmd extranea. Is there a clean kernel
patch hanging around somewhere?
This was a snapshot of the CVS tree in between -pre merging.
It was never really tested that much AFAIK.
The .rej's themselves are easy to mend, except for buffer.c, in which I
can't find a likely referant for the failed block. And in any case
compilation of the result fails in aic7xxx!
See FAQ. This is not related to the XFS patch.
So I would guess random other patches have been applied. Fair 'nuff.
Just give me a clue what they are! Moving the 2.4.5 aic7xxx_reg.h
across almost does the trick, but not quite. aic7xxx_seq.h is also
needed. That seems to fix it. But what happened?
The FAQ has a nic entry for this.
