The patch titled
     Subject: autofs: remove unused AUTOFS_IOC_EXPIRE_DIRECT/INDIRECT
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     autofs-remove-unused-autofs_ioc_expire_direct-indirect.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: Tomohiro Kusumi <tkusumi@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: autofs: remove unused AUTOFS_IOC_EXPIRE_DIRECT/INDIRECT

These are not used by either kernel or userspace, although
AUTOFS_IOC_EXPIRE_DIRECT once seems to have been used by userspace in
around 2006-2008, which was technically just an alias of the existing
ioctl AUTOFS_IOC_EXPIRE_MULTI.

ioctls for autofs are already complicated enough that they could be
removed unless these are staying here to be able to compile userspace code
of certain period of time from a decade ago.

Edit: raven@xxxxxxxxxx
Yes, this is indeed very old and anything that still uses must
be updated becuase it will be using broken functionality.
