Why do your patches not start with [PATCH]?

How does the resulting config compare to the individual previous configs?  Are
there any options that were dropped from the union of the old configs? 
 Mutually exclusive options that had to be resolved one way or another? 
 Changes in non-hw options?

It would be nice to do what I did with 85xx in commit 7e2ad2ef851, and start
with a patch that makes the defconfigs conform to what the new approach will
give (to more easily see what is changing), and then have the next patch
switch to fragments.

Why is this not in mpc86xx_basic_defconfig?  There is no 64-bit 86xx.
