The patch titled Subject: buildid: stash away kernels build ID on init has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was buildid-stash-away-kernels-build-id-on-init.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Stephen Boyd <swboyd@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: buildid: stash away kernels build ID on init Parse the kernel's build ID at initialization so that other code can print a hex format string representation of the running kernel's build ID. This will be used in the kdump and dump_stack code so that developers can easily locate the vmlinux debug symbols for a crash/stacktrace.
