The patch titled md: Fixed refcounting/locking when attempting read error correction in raid10 has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is md-fixed-refcounting-locking-when-attempting-read-error-correction-in-raid10.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: NeilBrown <neilb@xxxxxxx> We need to hold a reference to rdevs while reading and writing to attempt to correct read errors. This reference must be taken under an rcu lock.
