Why are you so specific? The version currently in OM repository is
2.6.29-rc3 based. There is a patch series sent upstream (Sun, 10 May
to LAKML) that are based on a more recent version.

AFAIK, nobody's planning a "great rebase", i.e. to rebase all the
gta0? support on HEAD of upstream. I think the plan is to wait for
upstream acceptance of the minimal machine support (that is likely to
happen on the next merge window i guess) and then to send the
remaining drivers/fixes upstream as the time permits.
