all .1 patches, for example there are patches to take 2.6.25 from
EXTRAVERSION = .2 to .17 but no patch for .0 > .1, attempting to apply
patch-2.6.25.1-2 to 2.6.25 will fail on the Makefile as it does not
have the correct starting version.

I assume the patches are generated from a script and there is a bug,
easily worked around by downloading the full 2.6.25.1 tarball but the
full incremental set would be very useful for a project I am working
on.

There are no incremental patches for .0 -> .1 in incr because those
would be the same as the patch-2.6.xy.1.bz2 patches available at
pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/.
