The patch titled Subject: libstring_helpers.c:string_get_size(): return void has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was lib-string_get_size-return-void.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: libstring_helpers.c:string_get_size(): return void string_get_size() was documented to return an error, but in fact always returned 0. Since the output always fits in 9 bytes, just document that and let callers do what they do now: pass a small stack buffer and ignore the return value.
