Atmel had some FPGAs when acquired by Microchip. Albeit Microchip is sort of where chip families go to die, so I wouldn't draw a trend from that.

Would the Xilinx/AMD acquisition make Lattice the biggest independent FPGA vendor?

Many of Lattice's FPGAs were acquisitions as well. The iCE series came from SiliconBlue; ECP5 came from Silicon Image.
