(a) Don't, there are major VM differences between XFS and -ac.

(b) If you insist, get the XFS patch against Redhat 7.2 from 
    
ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/download/Release-1.0.2/kernel_rpms/i386/2.4.9-13-RH7.2/
    which is the closest XFS gets to an ac kernel.  Modify the patches
    in that directory to suit your kernel.

(c) Don't, see (a).
