The patch titled Subject: dynamic_debug: move pr_err from module.c to ddebug_add_module has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was dynamic_debug-move-pr_err-from-modulec-to-ddebug_add_module.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: dynamic_debug: move pr_err from module.c to ddebug_add_module This serves two purposes: First, we get a diagnostic if (though extremely unlikely), any of the calls of ddebug_add_module for built-in code fails, effectively disabling dynamic_debug. Second, I want to make struct _ddebug opaque, and avoid accessing any of its members outside dynamic_debug.[ch].
