I don't think I'm adding much value handling ppc/ppc64 patches, really. 
I'd prefer to get out of that business.

It would be better to have an arch maintainer who runs a git tree, same as
ia64, arm, etc.

And, given the amount of shared infrastructure, I suspect it would have to
be a single git tree for both architectures.

I'd still sweep up random ppc patches, but those will go into mainline via the
originator->mm->git-powerpc->linus route.

Possible?
