The patch titled Subject: kernel: exit: cleanup release_thread() has been added to the -mm mm-nonmm-unstable branch. Its filename is kernel-exit-cleanup-release_thread.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/kernel-exit-cleanup-release_thread.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-nonmm-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Kefeng Wang <wangkefeng.wang@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: kernel: exit: cleanup release_thread() Date: Fri, 19 Aug 2022 09:44:06 +0800 Only x86 has own release_thread(), introduce a new weak release_thread() function to clean empty definitions in other ARCHs.
