Re: 2.4.24 patch apply failed on vanilla kernel

[Len Brown <len.brown-ral2JQCrhuEAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>]

Two problems here -- both caused my me -- both now fixed.

1. I mis-merged the line in smpboot.c
when I first found and fixed that bug i replaced NR_CPUS
with MAX_APICS, which made perfect sense for the non-numa
case where MAX_APICS is 16.  wli checked in the BITS_PER_LONG
fix (32) and I mistakenly over-wrote it -- now restored.

2. Marcelo re-named the 2.4.24 bk tree to be 2.4.25
and quickly released a new 2.4.24 tree with just a couple of
changes.  Until tonight, my ACPI patch on kernel.org was
against the 'old' 2.4.24.  I've since updated both the trees
at http://linux-acpi.bkbits.net/ as well as the plain patches
up on http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/patches

Let me know if I missed anything.

thanks,
-Len
