The patch titled
Subject: kernel/smp.c: tell the user we're bringing up secondary CPUs
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was

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

Subject: kernel/smp.c: tell the user we're bringing up secondary CPUs
Currently we don't print anything before starting to bring up secondary
CPUs. This can be confusing if it takes a long time to bring up the
secondaries, or if the kernel crashes while doing so and produces no
further output.
On x86 they work around this by detecting when the first secondary CPU
comes up and printing a message (see announce_cpu()). But doing it in
smp_init() is simpler and works for all arches.
