It looks like this change will exclude the following PPC OPAL related files:

drivers/tty/hvc/hvc_opal.c - HYPERVISOR VIRTUAL CONSOLE DRIVER (which lists linuxppc-dev as the mailing list, doesn't name a maintainer though)

drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-opal.c - I2C SUBSYSTEM

drivers/rtc/rtc-opal.c - REAL TIME CLOCK (RTC) SUBSYSTEM
