The patch titled
Fix block device symlink name
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is
fix-block-device-symlink-name.patch
This patch was probably dropped from -mm because
it has now been merged into a subsystem tree or
into Linus's tree, or because it was folded into
its parent patch in the -mm tree.
From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
As noted further on the this file, some block devices have a / in their
name, so fix the "block:..." symlink name the same as the /sys/block name.
