The patch titled Subject: lib/uuid: move generate_random_uuid() to uuid.c has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is lib-uuid-move-generate_random_uuid-to-uuidc.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/lib-uuid-move-generate_random_uuid-to-uuidc.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/lib-uuid-move-generate_random_uuid-to-uuidc.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: lib/uuid: move generate_random_uuid() to uuid.c Let's gather the UUID related functions under one hood.
