The patch titled
Subject: cpuidle: replace strnicmp with strncasecmp
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
cpuidle-replace-strnicmp-with-strncasecmp.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: cpuidle: replace strnicmp with strncasecmp
The kernel used to contain two functions for length-delimited,
case-insensitive string comparison, strnicmp with correct semantics and a
slightly buggy strncasecmp. The latter is the POSIX name, so strnicmp was
renamed to strncasecmp, and strnicmp made into a wrapper for the new
strncasecmp to avoid breaking existing users.
To allow the compat wrapper strnicmp to be removed at some point in the
future, and to avoid the extra indirection cost, do
s/strnicmp/strncasecmp/g.
