The patch titled
NOMMU: Set BDI capabilities for /dev/mem and /dev/kmem
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is
nommu-set-bdi-capabilities-for-dev-mem-and-dev-kmem.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: NOMMU: Set BDI capabilities for /dev/mem and /dev/kmem
From: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx>
Set the backing device info capabilities for /dev/mem and /dev/kmem to
permit direct sharing under no-MMU conditions and full mapping capabilities
under MMU conditions. Make the BDI used by these available to all directly
mappable character devices.
Also comment the capabilities for /dev/zero.
