The current 2.6 prepatch is 2.6.22-rc3, released on May 25. "The geeks with embedded hardware can consider themselves doubly special (and not just because your mothers told you you are), because we've got updates to ARM, SH and Blackfin. What more could you possibly want? Some ATA updates? USB suspend problem solving? Infiniband? DVB and MMC updates? Network drivers and some fixes for silly network problems? Yeah we got them!" The long-format changelog has the details.
