The patch titled
better lock debugging: remove mutex deadlock checking code
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is
better-lock-debugging-remove-mutex-deadlock-checking-code.patch
This patch was dropped because lockdep is being redone
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: better lock debugging: remove mutex deadlock checking code
From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxx>
With the lock validator we detect mutex deadlocks (and more), the mutex
deadlock checking code is both redundant and slower. So remove it.
