rawhide patches.

2008-09-25 Thread Dave Jones
I just sifted through what we had in rawhide, after noticing that ls *.patch was starting to scroll my terminal (which is never a good sign). In doing so, I found a bunch of patches that weren't applied any more that we forgot to remove, and a bunch that were applied that shouldn't have been.

Now that rawhide has opened up again for F10, I've moved CVS forward to 2.6.26-rc2-git5. In doing so, there were the usual ton of rejects, some of the trivial ones I fixed up, but some of the larger patches (especially the git tree snapshots) failed so much that it was easier to just disable them
