The patch titled Subject: mm/slab.c: use __seq_open_private() instead of seq_open() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-use-__seq_open_private-instead-of-seq_open.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Rob Jones <rob.jones@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/slab.c: use __seq_open_private() instead of seq_open() Using __seq_open_private() removes boilerplate code from slabstats_open() The resultant code is shorter and easier to follow. This patch does not change any functionality.
