After some digging I found this:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/ralf/linux.git;a=commit;h=ac01dc416905aeb331954d036287a0a0c5c90ec5

I read the thread that it references but there is no indication of
whether the empty file is going to be git rm'd any time soon.  Perhaps
Ralf could comment?
