The patch titled
Subject: mm/pkeys: generate pkey system call code only if ARCH_HAS_PKEYS is selected
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-pkeys-generate-pkey-system-call-code-only-if-arch_has_pkeys-is-selected.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/pkeys: generate pkey system call code only if ARCH_HAS_PKEYS is selected
Having code for the pkey_mprotect, pkey_alloc and pkey_free system calls
makes only sense if ARCH_HAS_PKEYS is selected. If not selected these
system calls will always return -ENOSPC or -EINVAL.
To simplify things and have less code generate the pkey system call code
only if ARCH_HAS_PKEYS is selected.
For architectures which have already wired up the system calls, but do not
select ARCH_HAS_PKEYS this will result in less generated code and a
different return code: the three system calls will now always return
-ENOSYS, using the cond_syscall mechanism.
For architectures which have not wired up the system calls less
unreachable code will be generated.
