The patch titled Subject: sysctl: move some boundary constants from sysctl.c to sysctl_vals has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was sysctl-move-some-boundary-constants-from-sysctlc-to-sysctl_vals.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Xiaoming Ni <nixiaoming@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: sysctl: move some boundary constants from sysctl.c to sysctl_vals sysctl has helpers which let us specify boundary values for a min or max int value. Since these are used for a boundary check only they don't change, so move these variables to sysctl_vals to avoid adding duplicate variables. This will help with our cleanup of kernel/sysctl.c.
