The patch titled
     Subject: lib/test_meminit.c: fix -Wmaybe-uninitialized false positive
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     lib-test_meminit-fix-wmaybe-uninitialized-false-positive.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>
Subject: lib/test_meminit.c: fix -Wmaybe-uninitialized false positive

The conditional logic is too complicated for the compiler to fully
comprehend:

lib/test_meminit.c: In function 'test_meminit_init':
lib/test_meminit.c:236:5: error: 'buf_copy' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
     kfree(buf_copy);
     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
lib/test_meminit.c:201:14: note: 'buf_copy' was declared here

Simplify it by splitting out the non-rcu section.
