The patch titled timerfd: introduce a new hrtimer_forward_now() function has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was timerfd-v3-introduce-a-new-hrtimer_forward_now-function.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: timerfd: introduce a new hrtimer_forward_now() function From: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> I think that advancing the timer against the timer's current "now" can be a pretty common usage, so, w/out exposing hrtimer's internals, we add a new hrtimer_forward_now() function.
