The patch titled AFS: Make the match_*() functions take const options has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was afs-make-the-match_-functions-take-const-options.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: AFS: Make the match_*() functions take const options From: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx> Make the match_*() functions take a const pointer to the options table and make strings pointers in the options table const too.
