Neither. Changelog is generated as "all commits that are present in the
10.2.7 history, but were not present in the 10.2.6 history". And all
commits in 10.1 are merged into 10.2 eventually (because many 10.1
bugfixes apply to 10.2 too).

So whatever was done to XtraDB in 10.1 it will be part of 10.2 revision
history, even though XtraDB itself is disabled in 10.2 (and does not
even compile there).

I agree that it's confusing, but what can we do? Manually filter out all
commits that contain the string "xtradb" from the changelog?
