The patch titled
Subject: x86/compat: remove is_compat_task()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
x86-compat-remove-is_compat_task.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: x86/compat: remove is_compat_task()
x86's is_compat_task always checked the current syscall type, not the task
type. It has no non-arch users any more, so just remove it to avoid
confusion.
On x86, nothing should really be checking the task ABI. There are
legitimate users for the syscall ABI and for the mm ABI.
