Odd. Your shortlog has this:

that removed the 'pseries_defconfig' file, but then your diffstat

> arch/powerpc/configs/pq2fads_defconfig | 80 ----

doesn't have it, resulting in the summary not matching what I get:

> 278 files changed, 2672 insertions(+), 9188 deletions(-)

versus my

279 files changed, 2690 insertions(+), 9528 deletions(-)

and I see no obvious reason for it.

I wonder if your test-merge just didn't remove the file (it did have a
conflict due to the IXGB driver removal), and that's why.

Anyway, I'm not entirely sure about the mismatch of the end result,
but it seems to be due to that one defconfig file, and I think my
merge is fine. But please double-check.
