The patch titled
     Documentation/gpio.txt mentions GENERIC_GPIO
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     documentation-gpiotxt-mentions-generic_gpio.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: Documentation/gpio.txt mentions GENERIC_GPIO
From: David Brownell <david-b@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Documentation/gpio.txt should mention the Kconfig GENERIC_GPIO flag, for
platforms to declare when relevant.  This should help minimize goofs like
omitting it, or not depending on it when needed.
