The patch titled
     Subject: util_macros.h: have array pointer point to array of constants
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     util_macrosh-have-array-pointer-point-to-array-of-constants.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: Guenter Roeck <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: util_macros.h: have array pointer point to array of constants

Using the new find_closest() macro can result in the following sparse
warnings.

drivers/hwmon/lm85.c:194:16: warning:
		incorrect type in initializer (different modifiers)
drivers/hwmon/lm85.c:194:16:    expected int *__fc_a
drivers/hwmon/lm85.c:194:16:    got int static const [toplevel] *<noident>
drivers/hwmon/lm85.c:210:16: warning:
		incorrect type in initializer (different modifiers)
drivers/hwmon/lm85.c:210:16:    expected int *__fc_a
drivers/hwmon/lm85.c:210:16:    got int const *map

This is because the array passed to find_closest() will typically be
declared as array of constants, but the macro declares a non-constant
pointer to it.
