I've been generating a tag at the preparatory patch set point for quite a
while now. If you look in the tags list on:

http://git.infradead.org/users/dhowells/linux-headers.git

you will see a number of tags of the form:

uapi-prep-YYYYMMDD

that's the preparatory set if you want to take just that.

Yesterday's preparatory set is at tag:

uapi-prep-20121001

See: http://git.infradead.org/users/dhowells/linux-headers.git/shortlog/refs/tags/uapi-prep-20121001

I have just done another regeneration so that arm64 is covered too. That
has now been posted under:

uapi-post-split-20121001 - The complete set
uapi-prep-20121002 - The preparatory set

I will send you a pull request for just the preparatory set when I have tried
some test builds on it and when gitweb has finally caught up.
