- coda-block-signals-during-upcall-processing.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

The patch titled
     coda: block signals during upcall processing
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     coda-block-signals-during-upcall-processing.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: coda: block signals during upcall processing
From: Jan Harkes <jaharkes@xxxxxxxxxx>

We ignore signals for about 30 seconds to give userspace a chance to see the
upcall.  As we did not block signals we ended up in a busy loop for the
remainder of the period when a signal is received.
