The patch titled
Subject: sysctl: fix duplicate path separator in printed entries
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
sysctl-fix-duplicate-path-separator-in-printed-entries.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@xxxxxxxxx>
Subject: sysctl: fix duplicate path separator in printed entries
sysctl_print_dir() always terminates the printed path name with a slash,
so printing a slash before the file part causes a duplicate like in
sysctl duplicate entry: /kernel//perf_user_access
Fix this by dropping the extra slash.
