The patch titled Subject: mm: validate device_hotplug is held for memory hotplug has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-validate-device_hotplug-is-held-for-memory-hotplug.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: validate device_hotplug is held for memory hotplug mem_hotplug_begin() assumes that it can set mem_hotplug.active_writer and run the hotplug process without racing another thread. Validate this assumption with a lockdep assertion.
