Hi Ashwin,

at least 2 reasons :
- this tree is not an officiel Freescale one despite the Freescale name
  of the github account,
- you are looking at the master branch which is mainline, when the
  patch collection branches for Freescale's kernels are in branch
  patches-imx-2.6.35_10.12.01 and patches-imx-2.6.35_11.09.01

If you want the kernels from Freescale you can have a look here
(especially the imx_ branches) :
http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git/

Best regards
Eric
