The patch titled
     Subject: netconsole: make all dynamic netconsoles share a mutex
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     netconsole-make-all-dynamic-netconsoles-share-a-mutex.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
From: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: netconsole: make all dynamic netconsoles share a mutex

Currently, each dynamic netconsole_target uses its own separate mutex to
synchronize the configuration operations.  This patch replaces the
per-netconsole_target mutexes with a single mutex -
dynamic_netconsole_mutex.  The reduced granularity doesn't hurt anything,
the code is minutely simpler and this'd allow adding operations which
should be synchronized across all dynamic netconsoles.
