Prepatches and kernel.org incdiff robot

Hi,

I have hard-linked the prepatches I have been able to find into
/pub/linux/kernel/v*.*/testing/old/, following the "modern" naming
scheme, so the incdiff robot could produce incrementals against them.

First, I wanted to let you know what the deal was... they are just
hardlinks against what is elsewhere (/pub/linux/testing or
/pub/linux/people), with different names.

Second, there were several prepatches that did not apply cleanly, which
broke the robot, and which I had to remove from the testing/old
directories (I did not touch the original link, of course.) The only
one that was anywhere close to recent and might be worth fixing was
2.0.40-pre2; the other ones were 2.2.18 versions (-pre1,2,3,4, and 26.)

I mostly wanted to give you everyone a heads-up.
