Once upon a time, the kernel was just a series of patches. These days, git manages most of the kernel. git can do many useful things, such as maintain binary files. Binary file changes are not easily expressed in patches and can't be applied without using git. Remove the binary diffs from any snapshot or -rc patches. We will eventually pick up the changes/deletions in the final release tarball.
