The patch titled
     rfcomm: hangup ttys before releasing rfcomm_dev
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     rfcomm-hangup-ttys-before-releasing-rfcomm_dev.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: rfcomm: hangup ttys before releasing rfcomm_dev


Addresses the oops at http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7509

The core problem is that rfcomm socket layer ioctl can release rfcomm_dev
struct while rfcomm tty layer is still actively using it.  Calling tty_vhangup
is needed for a synchronous hangup before rfcomm_dev is freed.
