[PATCH] Remove *.orig pattern from .gitignore

[Laurent Pinchart]

Commit 3f1b0e1f2875 (".gitignore update") added *.orig and *.rej
patterns to .gitignore in v2.6.23. The commit message didn't give a
rationale. Later on, commit 1f5d3a6b6532 ("Remove *.rej pattern from
.gitignore") removed the *.rej pattern in v2.6.26, on the rationale that
*.rej files indicated something went really wrong and should not be
ignored.

The *.rej files are now shown by `git status`, which helps located
conflicts when applying patches and lowers the probability that they
will go unnoticed. It is however still easy to overlook the *.orig files
which slowly polute the source tree. That's not as big of a deal as not
noticing a conflict, but it's still not nice.

Drop the *.orig pattern from .gitignore to avoid this and help keep the
source tree clean.

As this has been in the tree for so long and appears not to have botherd
anyone, I have a strong feeling I've overlooked something and this patch
will be rejected. I've actually had that feeling for a few years
already, and today I decided that maybe everybody else used the exact
same reasoning, explaining why the annoying *.orig pattern is still in
.gitignore.
