The patch titled Fix computation of SKB size for quota messages has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was fix-computation-of-skb-size-for-quota-messages.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: Fix computation of SKB size for quota messages From: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx> Fix computation of size of skb needed for quota message. We should use netlink provided functions and not just an ad-hoc number. Also don't print the return value from nla_put_foo() as it is always -1.
