So this has been reported before for drm-misc [1] and drm-xe [2] trees,
and has been fixed in the drm-misc tree by commit 651b0bd0922b
("drm/panel: remove accidentally committed .orig file").

Similar to what Joonas said in [3], this should really only be reported
once for the tree *and* branch where it originated. There's not a lot of
value in reporting again whenever something gets merged somewhere else.
