The patch titled
msi: Only keep one msi_desc in each slab entry.
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is
msi-only-keep-one-msi_desc-in-each-slab-entry.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: msi: Only keep one msi_desc in each slab entry.
From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
It looks like someone confused kmem_cache_create with a different allocator
and was attempting to give it knowledge of how many cache entries there
were.
With the unfortunate result that each slab entry was big enough to hold
every irq.
