Wow that's neat. I can't be sure I understand exactly what its saying but if
I'm looking at it right I'm in the middle of a temporary fork that was
created just after 2.6.34-rc6 and was merged with 2.6.35-rc1.

This is what my git bisect log looks like:

Just a few more steps until we find the culprit, it said 7 revisions
remained after this bisect.
