The patch titled uml: LDT mutex conversion has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is uml-ldt-mutex-conversion.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: uml: LDT mutex conversion From: Daniel Walker <dwalker@xxxxxxxxxx> The ldt.semaphore conforms to the new struct mutex requirments, so I converted it to use the new API and changed the name.
