The patch titled
Subject: kexec_file: factor out kexec_locate_mem_hole from kexec_add_buffer
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
kexec_file-factor-out-kexec_locate_mem_hole-from-kexec_add_buffer.patch
This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged
------------------------------------------------------
From: Thiago Jung Bauermann <bauerman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: kexec_file: factor out kexec_locate_mem_hole from kexec_add_buffer
kexec_locate_mem_hole will be used by the PowerPC kexec_file_load
implementation to find free memory for the purgatory stack.
