The seven characters between olpc. and .i586 are the git hash for the
olpc-2.6.35 branch in the git repository git://dev.laptop.org/olpc-kernel

These tell you which git hash was used to build the kernel.

The hash c2bd7b9 is two patches away from bde819f in the branch log.  [1]

One patch [3] is what Paul did for you.  The other patch [2] is XO-1.5
specific.

So for your purposes, yes, it is the only difference.

You can see a list of previous official kernels.  [4]

libertas: Add libertas_disablemesh module parameter to disable mesh
interfaceolpc-2.6.35
This allows individual users and deployments to disable mesh support at
runtime, i.e. without having to build and maintain a custom kernel.
