The patch titled Subject: uaccess: add missing __must_check attributes has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was uaccess-add-missing-__must_check-attributes.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: uaccess: add missing __must_check attributes The usercopy implementation comments describe that callers of the copy_*_user() family of functions must always have their return values checked. This can be enforced at compile time with __must_check, so add it where needed.
