[PlanetCCRMA] Adding XFS support to 2.4.23-1.ll kernel

[Gerrit Niestijl]

Hi,

Currently i have the PlanetCCRMA 2.4.23-1.ll kernel running fine here
with the xfs patches applied. I used these patches:

xfs-2.4.23-split-kernel.bz2
xfs-2.4.23-split-misc.bz2
xfs-2.4.23-split-only.bz2

I had to fix one small reject. If anyone is interested i can share my
experiences.
