ftp://ftp.firstfloor.org/pub/ak/x86_64/quilt/patches/ is everything.

In rc6-mm1 that's everything between #X86_64-START and #X86_64-END in the
series file.  I have another 35-odd x86 patches on top of that lot.

Note that I normally stage the x86_64 tree _after_ the ACPI tree, but I can
change that.

I don't think that making the acpi tree dependent upon the x86_64 tree
would be a smart idea, frankly.  It'll cause you heaps of pain.

Perhaps Andi could stick his tree into git for you to base off, dunno.  But
he doesn't seem to be around at present.
