The patch titled
Subject: kernel: build bin2c based on config option CONFIG_BUILD_BIN2C
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
kernel-build-bin2c-based-on-config-option-config_build_bin2c.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: kernel: build bin2c based on config option CONFIG_BUILD_BIN2C
currently bin2c builds only if CONFIG_IKCONFIG=y. But bin2c will now be
used by kexec too. So make it compilation dependent on CONFIG_BUILD_BIN2C
and this config option can be selected by CONFIG_KEXEC and CONFIG_IKCONFIG.

kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
