It is split between new files, under target/linux/ar71xx of their
tree, and patches of existing kernel files. You can browse online the
git export of their SVN:

http://nbd.name/gitweb.cgi?p=openwrt.git;a=tree;f=target/linux/ar71xx;hb=b45b193b99d0111a70845c02bdeb3ece58fb15a1

or clone the git export (~90M):

git://nbd.name/openwrt.git

I guess with some git-fuu, everything can be extracted, so that the
history of the files themselves would be kept, thought, commit message
may need a bit of tweaking. Then patch linking the core to the rest of
the kernel can be applied separately. I'll try to have a look tonight.
