The patch titled
de_thread: Use tsk not current
has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is
de_thread-use-tsk-not-current.patch
See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find
out what to do about this
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: de_thread: Use tsk not current
From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Ingo Oeser pointed out that because current expands to an inline function
it is more space efficient and somewhat faster to simply keep a cached copy
of current in another variable. This patch implements that for the
de_thread function.
