The patch titled
Subject: kcov: simplify interrupt check
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
kcov-simplify-interrupt-check.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: kcov: simplify interrupt check
in_interrupt() semantics are confusing and wrong for most users as it also
returns true when bh is disabled. Thus we open coded a proper check for
interrupts in __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() with a lengthy explanatory
comment.
Use the new in_task() predicate instead.
