The patch titled kbuild: whitelist references from __dbe_table to .init has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was whitelist-references-from-__dbe_table-to-init.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: kbuild: whitelist references from __dbe_table to .init From: Ralf Baechle <ralf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> This is needed on MIPS where the same mechanism as get_user() is used to intercept bus error exceptions for some hardware probes.
