For example, provided that you have both vanilla sources and Debian
sources, and an appropriate APCI diff, you could do:

#!/bin/bash
version="2.4.20"
acpi_v="20021212-2.4.20"
cd /usr/src
rm -rf linux-${version} kernel-source-${version}
tar -xjf linux-${version}.tar.bz2
tar -xjf kernel-source-${version}.tar.bz2
diff -Nur kernel-source-${version} linux-${version} > debian-unacpi-${version}.diff
lsdiff acpi-${acpi_v}.diff | sed -e's/^a//' | while read f ; do filterdiff -i * debian-unacpi-${version}.diff >| debian-unacpi.diff ; done
