The patch titled Subject: x86/mm: use helper fault_signal_pending() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was x86-mm-use-helper-fault_signal_pending.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Peter Xu <peterx@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: x86/mm: use helper fault_signal_pending() Let's move the fatal signal check even earlier so that we can directly use the new fault_signal_pending() in x86 mm code.
