The patch titled Subject: proc: remove proc_tty_ldisc variable has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was proc-remove-proc_tty_ldisc-variable.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: proc: remove proc_tty_ldisc variable /proc/tty/ldisc appear to be unused as a directory and it had been always that way. But it is userspace visible thing. Cowardly remove only in-kernel variable holding it.
