The patch titled

     pnp-remove-null-pointer-checks.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: PNP: remove null pointer checks
From: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@xxxxxx>

Remove some null pointer checks.  Null pointers in these areas indicate
programming errors, and I think it's better to oops immediately rather than
return an error that is easily ignored.
