Oddly, this patch is available as a compressed ‘bz2’ patchfile,
where the previous ac kernels were only available in `gz`
format.

This one is a cleanup/bug fixer. No new features just a bit of polishing
and tidying up with more to follow. I've sent about 2/3rds by volume of
the 2.1.131ac* stuff to Linus so far.
