Hi Muli,
Thanks, I did not know about the mrproper target.
The problem was that the previous owner of these trees left a lot of
"uImage_copy", "old_uImage.sammy", and dozens of .swp and .swo files in
the trees along with board-dm365-evm.c, board-dm365-evm.c.bak,
board-dm365-evm.c.dave, etc. No target however smart can hope to find all
of these files.

I tried the recommended "diff -Naur -X ./Documentation/dontdiff"
but it still diff'ed a lot of binaries.
My recommendation: cp -al the dirty tree into a new copy (or cp both
if both are dirty), run `make mrproper' in the copy or copies, diff
the copy using dontdiff as above. There should not be any binaries in
the resulting diff.
Cheers,
Muli
