The patch titled Subject: CPU hotplug, smp: Execute any pending IPI callbacks before CPU offline has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was cpu-hotplug-smp-flush-any-pending-ipi-callbacks-before-cpu-offline-v2.patch This patch was dropped because it was folded into cpu-hotplug-smp-flush-any-pending-ipi-callbacks-before-cpu-offline.patch ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Srivatsa S. Bhat" <srivatsa.bhat@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: CPU hotplug, smp: Execute any pending IPI callbacks before CPU offline Changes in v2: * Modified the changelog to make it more accurate and easy to understand, based on feedback by Peter Zijlstra. * Replaced the term "IPI functions" with "IPI callbacks" in the code comments. * Absolutely no changes in the code.
