[PLUG] Updated megapatch


I've upgraded my collection of kernel patches to suit kernel 2.2.17.  The
patch is available from:

http://www.jasons.org/megapatch/

The patch includes:

IDE Patches  - http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/hedrick/
- Provides UDMA66 support, as well as better performance on ATA33 drives.

ReiserFS     - http://devlinux.com/pub/namesys/
- A journaled file system.  Very fast and stable.  I run my / filesystem
  on reiserfs.

USB Backport - http://www.suse.cz/development/usb-backport/
- Go ahead, use those USB devices...

AGP GART     - http://utah-glx.sourceforge.net/gart/
- Support for fast AGP writes on certain chipsets.

Useful (IMHO) when building the NVIDIA XFree 4.0.x kernel module for the 
NVIDIA DRI/GLX driver, available from:
ftp://ftp1.detonator.nvidia.com/pub/drivers/english/XFree86_40/
