The patch titled user of the jiffies rounding patch: Slab has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was user-of-the-jiffies-rounding-patch-slab.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: user of the jiffies rounding patch: Slab From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> This patch introduces users of the round_jiffies() function in the slab code. The slab code has a few "run every second" timers for background work; these are obviously not timing critical as long as they happen roughly at the right frequency.
