The patch titled Subject: fs/kernfs/dir.c:kernfs_path_from_node_locked(): remove unneeded test has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was fs-kernfs-dirc-kernfs_path_from_node_locked-remove-unneeded-test.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: fs/kernfs/dir.c:kernfs_path_from_node_locked(): remove unneeded test If buf is ever NULL here, kernfs_path_from_node_locked() will oops anyway. All callers pass non-NULL.
