Yes, on each release I update the ACPI patch for every release that I
support.
>Patch for 2.4.25 seems to be updated too; however, it gives several

I just tested it on a clean 2.4.25 tree and got no rejects.
(I tested the .gz edition)
Either there was a patch in your tree already, or the
patch got corrupted. Note that kernel.org signs their files
and you can verify their valididity per instructions in here:
