The patch titled

     Fix getdelays.c - cpumask length and error reporting

has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename is

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

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: Fix getdelays.c - cpumask length and error reporting
From: Balbir Singh <balbir@xxxxxxxxxx>

Fix the length passed while (un)registering cpumask.  We were passing sizeof
the array, make it strlen().

Error value printed in fatal errors should be derived from the message.  The
message contains an nlmsgerr embedded with an error value.  We must report
that value to the user.
