The patch titled spidernet: refactor RX refill has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was spidernet-refactor-rx-refill.patch This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: spidernet: refactor RX refill From: Linas Vepstas <linas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Refactor how spider_net_refill_rx_chain() is called. No functional change; this just simplifies the code by moving the subroutine call to a more appropriate spot.
