The patch titled Subject: maccess: rename strncpy_from_unsafe_strict to strncpy_from_kernel_nofault has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was maccess-rename-strncpy_from_unsafe_strict-to-strncpy_from_kernel_nofault.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> Subject: maccess: rename strncpy_from_unsafe_strict to strncpy_from_kernel_nofault This matches the naming of strncpy_from_user_nofault, and also makes it more clear what the function is supposed to do.
