The patch titled Char: stallion, brd struct locking has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was char-stallion-brd-struct-locking.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: Char: stallion, brd struct locking From: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@xxxxxxxxx> Since assigning of stl_brds[brdnr] is racy, add locking to this critical section.
