The patch titled
     Subject: samples/kprobes: add a new module parameter
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was

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

------------------------------------------------------
From: Huang Shijie <shijie.huang@xxxxxxx>
Subject: samples/kprobes: add a new module parameter

Add a new module parameter which can be used as the symbol name.  Without
this patch, we can only test the "_do_fork" function with this kernel
module.  With this patch, the module becomes more flexible; we can test
any functions with this module with

	# insmod kprobe_example.ko symbol="xxx"
