The patch titled Fix signedness of parameters in scsi module has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was fix-signedness-of-parameters-in-scsi-module.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: Fix signedness of parameters in scsi module From: Masatake YAMATO <jet@xxxxxxxx> In scsi module I've found some inconsistency between variable type used in module_param_named and type passed to module_param_named as an argument. Especially the inconsistency of `max_scsi_luns' parameter is a bit serious because the description text says "last scsi LUN (should be between 1 and 2^32-1)".
