[YBA] diff'ing kernel source trees

[Jonathan Ben Avraham]

Hi Elazar,
Good idea.
Unfortunately neither tree has .git. One tree is from TI dvsdk402_psp and 
the other tree is from a vendor who made many additions and changes to 
the TI dvsdk402_psp kernel. The dvsdk402_psp kernel is based on 2.6.32.17.
Thanks,

  - yba
