The patch titled Subject: signal: use current->state helpers has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was signal-use-current-state-helpers.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: signal: use current->state helpers Call __set_current_state() instead of assigning the new state directly.
