The patch titled Subject: mm/readahead: pass readahead_control to force_page_cache_ra has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-readahead-pass-readahead_control-to-force_page_cache_ra.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/readahead: pass readahead_control to force_page_cache_ra Reimplement force_page_cache_readahead() as a wrapper around force_page_cache_ra(). Pass the existing readahead_control from page_cache_sync_readahead().
