The patch titled
     SLUB: extract dma_kmalloc_cache from get_cache.
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     slub-extract-dma_kmalloc_cache-from-get_cache.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: SLUB: extract dma_kmalloc_cache from get_cache.
From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@xxxxxxx>

The rarely used dma functionality in get_slab() makes the function too
complex.  The compiler begins to spill variables from the working set onto the
stack.  The created function is only used in extremely rare cases so make sure
that the compiler does not decide on its own to merge it back into get_slab().
