I think your quilt is set up correctly.

The rejects probably come from the patch queue being based on a
different version than 2.6.26-rc5.

Which patchset did you use?

What I do when wanting a patch queue for a specific kernel is to
search for commit message indicating the rebase for this version.

There is a "Rebase to linux-2.6.26-rc5" on
http://repo.or.cz/w/ext4-patch-queue.git
So the corresponding snapshot
http://repo.or.cz/w/ext4-patch-queue.git?a=snapshot;h=ed6aaac3b0cc0ba47dbb2af0884306584271e5a2;sf=tgz
patches 2.6.26-rc5 smoothly.
(the last patchset also applies, with offset and fuzz, though)
