The patch titled
     namei.c: remove utterly outdated comment
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     nameic-remove-utterly-outdated-comment.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: namei.c: remove utterly outdated comment
From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx>

We don't have a routine called namei() anymore since at least 2.3.x, and
the comment is just totally out of sync with the current lookup logic.
