The easiest approach would be to git clone that kernel and
tar -cjf dl/linux-2.6.24.4.tar.bz2 linux-2.6-xlnx.git
(--exclude='.git' if you don't want to write patches against it) and use
that.

No, previously we only had one source-tree, but Ulf changed that for
reasons that i do not remember offhand (conflicting patches, i.e. broken
patches, IIRC).
