The patch titled make freezeable workqueues singlethread has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was make-freezeable-workqueues-singlethread.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: make freezeable workqueues singlethread From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx> It is a known fact that freezeable multithreaded workqueues doesn't like CPU_DEAD. We keep them only for the incoming CPU-hotplug rework. Sadly, we can't just kill create_freezeable_workqueue() right now, make them singlethread.
