The patch titled Subject: x86: opt into HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS, for both 32-bit and 64-bit has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was x86-opt-into-have_copy_thread_tls-for-both-32-bit-and-64-bit.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Josh Triplett <josh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: x86: opt into HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS, for both 32-bit and 64-bit For 32-bit userspace on a 64-bit kernel, this requires modifying stub32_clone to actually swap the appropriate arguments to match CONFIG_CLONE_BACKWARDS, rather than just leaving the C argument for tls broken.
