The patch titled
     Subject: asm-generic: fix compilation failure in cmpxchg_double()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     asm-generic-fix-compilation-failure-in-cmpxchg_double.patch

This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged

------------------------------------------------------
From: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: asm-generic: fix compilation failure in cmpxchg_double()

Arnd reported that the new code leads to compilation failures with some
versions of gcc.  I've filed gcc issue 72873, but we need a kernel fix as
well.

Remove instrumentation from cmpxchg_double() for now.
