The patch titled
workstruct: use bitops-safe direct assignment
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
workstruct-use-bitops-safe-direct-assignment.patch
This patch was dropped because it is obsolete
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: workstruct: use bitops-safe direct assignment
From: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx>
Replace the direct assignment in set_wq_data() with a bitops-proofed
wrapper (assign_bits()). This defends against the test_and_set_bit() used
to mark a work item active.
