The patch titled
Subject: bug: switch data corruption check to __must_check
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
bug-switch-data-corruption-check-to-__must_check.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: bug: switch data corruption check to __must_check
The CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION() macro was designed to have callers do
something meaningful/protective on failure. However, using "return false"
in the macro too strictly limits the design patterns of callers. Instead,
let callers handle the logic test directly, but make sure that the result
IS checked by forcing __must_check (which appears to not be able to be
used directly on macro expressions).
