Like this: git diff v2.6.32..origin/pv/pcifront-2.6.32

Thought the latest patches that I've been posting for review are in:
devel/xen-pcifront-0.5 and they are based on top 2.6.35, so you would
do:

git diff v2.6.35..origin/devel/xen-pcifront-0.5

and you would get the one big mega patch for the driver. Thought
don't forget you also need the SWIOTLB/Xen-SWIOTLB stuff (which is now
upstream in 2.6.36-rc0).

To make folks life easier I did setup branches which have all of those
patches in one location. They are:
  devel/merge.2.6.34
  devel/merge.2.6.35
  devel/merge.2.6.35-rc6.t2
  pv/merge.2.6.32
  pv/merge.2.6.33
