I really don't know what I did, but for some reason the patches all
applied after I fiddled with something.  Maybe I broke something, dunno.

I did drop a few acpi patches which were dependent upon cpuidle:

-acpi-suspend-consolidate-handling-of-sx-states.patch
-acpi-suspend-consolidate-handling-of-sx-states-addendum.patch

but they were staged _after_ the dynticks patches so I dunno what's going
on.  I guess when I try to compile this lot I'll have a better idea...

ho hum.  I hope I haven't lost any patches during this little episode.
