The patch titled kblockd: use flush_work has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kblockd-use-flush_work.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: kblockd: use flush_work From: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxx> Switch the kblockd flushing from a global flush to a more specific flush_work(). (akpm: bypassed maintainers, sorry. There are other patches which depend on this) Cc: "Maciej W.
