Since we can't ignore all test- prefixed files there, I'm removing the
patch that added it to .gitignore as well:

commit d316f16dddd8c7780c727bbd507338e4147c9280
Author: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@...ux.intel.com>
Date:   Fri Aug 15 22:08:59 2014 +0300

Aftewards I'll revisit this, because without this .gitignore patch I
think your patch will be ok.
