IMHO .gitignore should only contain files which are generated
by a normal QEMU build.

a.out*, .gdb_history, core, *.diff, *patch, *.rej are not QEMU specific
and should be ignored in the user's GIT configuration.

QEMU's .gitignore already contains too many entries which don't
belong there.Maybe it would be a good idea to remove those
entries and add a comment which explains what entries are ok.
