The patch titled

has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     remove-the-unused-exports-of-sys_open--sys_read-for-2625.patch

The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: remove the unused exports of sys_open/sys_read
From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

These exports (which aren't used and which are in fact dangerous to use
because they pretty much form a security hole to use) have been marked
_UNUSED since 2.6.24 with removal in 2.6.25.  This patch is their final
departure from the Linux kernel tree.
