The patch titled
initramfs: fix CPIO hardlink check
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is
initramfs-fix-cpio-hardlink-check.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: Mark Huang <mlhuang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Copy the filenames of hardlinks when inserting them into the hash, since
the "name" pointer may point to scratch space (name_buf). Not doing so
results in corruption if the scratch space is later overwritten: the wrong
file may be hardlinked, or, if the scratch space contains garbage, the link
will fail and a 0-byte file will be created instead.
