It doesn't "merit" its own tree; it has its own tree because the code is
not yet ready to be passed upstream but others need to see the code.  If
you don't want to deal with the code in this tree, don't.  When it is
ready, and eventually [hopefully] accepted into the kernel.org tree,
this tree will disappear.

arch/ppc/syslib/.
