The patch titled
Subject: proc: change ->nlink under proc_subdir_lock
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
proc-change-nlink-under-proc_subdir_lock.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@xxxxxxxxx>
Subject: proc: change ->nlink under proc_subdir_lock
Currently gluing PDE into global /proc tree is done under lock, but
changing ->nlink is not. Additionally struct proc_dir_entry::nlink is not
atomic so updates can be lost.
