The patch titled
Subject: dnotify: move dnotify sysctl to dnotify.c
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
dnotify-move-dnotify-sysctl-to-dnotifyc.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: Xiaoming Ni <nixiaoming@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: dnotify: move dnotify sysctl to dnotify.c
The kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty
dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain.
To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places
where they actually belong. The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to
know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we just
care about the core logic.
So move dnotify sysctls to dnotify.c and use the new
register_sysctl_init() to register the sysctl interface.
[mcgrof@xxxxxxxxxx: adjust the commit log to justify the move]
