has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
x86-boot-export-boot_params-via-sysfs.patch
This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: x86 boot: export boot_params via sysfs
From: "Huang, Ying" <ying.huang@xxxxxxxxx>
Export the boot parameters via sysfs. This can be used for debugging and
kexec.
The files added are as follow:
/sys/kernel/boot_params/data : binary file for struct boot_params
/sys/kernel/boot_params/version : boot protocol version
