The patch titled
Subject: kernel/crash_core: suppress unknown crashkernel parameter warning
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
kernel-crash_core-suppress-unknown-crashkernel-parameter-warning.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: Philipp Rudo <prudo@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: kernel/crash_core: suppress unknown crashkernel parameter warning
When booting with crashkernel= on the kernel command line a warning
similar to
[ 0.038294] Kernel command line: ro console=ttyS0 crashkernel=256M
[ 0.038353] Unknown kernel command line parameters "crashkernel=256M", will be passed to user space.
is printed. This comes from crashkernel= being parsed independent from
the kernel parameter handling mechanism. So the code in init/main.c
doesn't know that crashkernel= is a valid kernel parameter and prints this
incorrect warning. Suppress the warning by adding a dummy early_param
handler for crashkernel=.
