The patch titled SUNRPC: spin svc_rqst initialization to its own function has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was sunrpc-spin-svc_rqst-initialization-to-its-own-function.patch This patch was dropped because it keeps on changing The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: SUNRPC: spin svc_rqst initialization to its own function From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx> Move the initialzation in __svc_create_thread that happens prior to thread creation to a new function. Export the function to allow services to have better control over the svc_rqst structs. Also rearrange the rqstp initialization to prevent NULL pointer dereferences in svc_exit_thread in case allocations fail.
