The patch titled
     uml ubd driver: various little changes
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     uml-ubd-driver-various-little-changes.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: uml ubd driver: various little changes
From: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@xxxxxxxx>

Fix a small memory leak in ubd_config, and clearify the confusion which lead
to it.

Then, some little changes not affecting operations -
* move init functions together,
* add a comment about a potential problem in case of some evolution in the block layer,
* mark all initcalls as static __init functions
* mark an used once little function as inline
* document that mconsole methods are all called in process context (was
  triggered when checking ubd mconsole methods).
