The patch titled
     Subject: kernel: add support for init_array constructors
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     kernel-add-support-for-init_array-constructors.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: Frantisek Hrbata <fhrbata@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: kernel: add support for init_array constructors

This adds the .init_array section as yet another section with
constructors.  This is needed because gcc could add __gcov_init calls to
.init_array or .ctors section, depending on gcc version.
