The patch titled
x86_64: do not always end the stack trace with ULONG_MAX
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
x86_64-do-not-always-end-the-stack-trace-with-ulong_max.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: x86_64: do not always end the stack trace with ULONG_MAX
From: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@xxxxxxx>
It makes more sense to end the stack trace with ULONG_MAX only if
nr_entries < max_entries. Otherwise, we lose one entry in the long stack
traces and cannot know whether the trace was complete or not.
