The patch titled
Subject: smpboot: dynamically allocate the cpumask
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
smpboot-allow-excluding-cpus-from-the-smpboot-threads-fix.patch
This patch was dropped because it was folded into smpboot-allow-excluding-cpus-from-the-smpboot-threads.patch
------------------------------------------------------
From: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: smpboot: dynamically allocate the cpumask
Frederic Weisbecker observed that we'd be better off to dynamically
allocate the cpumask associated with smpboot threads to save memory.
