The patch titled
namespaces: cleanup the code managed with the USER_NS option
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
cleanup-the-code-managed-with-the-user_ns-option.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: namespaces: cleanup the code managed with the USER_NS option
From: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@xxxxxxxxxx>
Make the user_namespace.o compilation depend on this option and move the
init_user_ns into user.c file to make the kernel compile and work without the
namespaces support. This make the user namespace code be organized similar to
other namespaces'.
Also mask the USER_NS option as "depend on NAMESPACES".
