The patch titled dm: consolidate creation functions has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is dm-consolidate-creation-functions.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: dm: consolidate creation functions From: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@xxxxxxxxxx> Merge dm_create() and dm_create_with_minor() by introducing the special value DM_ANY_MINOR to request the allocation of the next available minor number.
