The patch titled Subject: watchdog: introduce the proc_watchdog_update() function has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was watchdog-introduce-the-proc_watchdog_update-function.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Ulrich Obergfell <uobergfe@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: watchdog: introduce the proc_watchdog_update() function This series introduces a separate handler for each watchdog parameter in /proc/sys/kernel. The separate handlers need a common function that they can call to update the run state of the lockup detectors, or to have the lockup detectors use a new sample period.
