These patches are versus 2.4.0-test1 from your favourite kernel mirror
(ftp.*.kernel.org:/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4.0). The patches are in
/pub/linux/kernel/people/alan.

The ac5/ac6/ac7 patches are really aimed mostly at folks actually fixing
drivers and in paticular hacking on the vm and buffer cache races. There
are things like broken and non fixed adaptec 29xx driver code and a
suspected memory leak to deal with.
