The patch titled

has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     kdb-kdb_current_task-shouldnt-be-exported.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
From: Douglas Anderson <dianders@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: kdb: kdb_current_task shouldn't be exported

The kdb_current_task variable has been declared in
"kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_private.h" since 2010 when kdb was added to the
mainline kernel.  This is not a public header.  There should be no reason
that kdb_current_task should be exported and there are no in-kernel users
that need it.  Remove the export.
