The patch titled
Subject: mm/zpool: use prefixed module loading
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-zpool-use-prefixed-module-loading.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/zpool: use prefixed module loading
To avoid potential format string expansion via module parameters, do not
use the zpool type directly in request_module() without a format string.
Additionally, to avoid arbitrary modules being loaded via zpool API (e.g.
via the zswap_zpool_type module parameter) add a "zpool-" prefix to the
requested module, as well as module aliases for the existing zpool types
(zbud and zsmalloc).
