deleting 2.4.22 and 2.4.24 ACPI patches

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

Currently I supply the latest ACPI on

2.4.22
2.4.24
2.4.25
2.5.26

The reasoning is that 2.4 is the installed base and we want to make it
easy to patch the installed base with the latest ACPI -- so we bend over
backwards somewhat.

2.6.4
2.6.5

The reasoning is that there is no 2.6 installed base, so we want to
encourage using the latest release.  So support just the most recent
frozen release plus the release that is currently under development.
eg. when 2.6.6 opens, 2.6.4 will be deleted.

When the releases are similar, this is pretty easy to do; but when they
diverge, real work is required, including merging, testing etc.

So I'd like to delete 2.4.22 and 2.4.24 support.  When 2.4.26 closes,
I'll delete 2.4.25 too.

Let me know if this is a problem for you.

thanks,
-Len
