The patch titled unify flush_work/flush_work_keventd and rename it to cancel_work_sync has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was unify-flush_work-flush_work_keventd-and-rename-it-to-cancel_work_sync.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: unify flush_work/flush_work_keventd and rename it to cancel_work_sync From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx> flush_work(wq, work) doesn't need the first parameter, we can use cwq->wq (this was possible from the very beginnig, I missed this). So we can unify flush_work_keventd and flush_work. Also, rename flush_work() to cancel_work_sync() and fix all callers. Perhaps this is not the best name, but "flush_work" is really bad. (akpm: this is why the earlier patches bypassed maintainers) Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Jeff Garzik <jeff@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: "David S.
