The patch titled
Fix tty layer DoS and comment relevant code
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is
fix-tty-layer-dos-and-comment-relevant-code.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: Fix tty layer DoS and comment relevant code
From: Alan Cox <alan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Unlike the other tty comment patch this one has code changes. Specifically
it limits the queue size for a tty to 64K characters (128Kbytes) worst case
even if the tty is ignoring tty->throttle. This is because certain drivers
don't honour the throttle value correctly, although it is a useful
safeguard anyway.
