The patch titled
r-o-bind-mounts: sys_mknodat(): elevate write count for vfs_mknod() create
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
r-o-bind-mounts-sys_mknodat-elevate-write-count-for-vfs_mknod-create.patch
This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged
The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

Subject: r-o-bind-mounts: sys_mknodat(): elevate write count for vfs_mknod() create
From: Dave Hansen <haveblue@xxxxxxxxxx>
This takes care of all of the direct callers of vfs_mknod().
Since a few of these cases also handle normal file creation
as well, this also covers some calls to vfs_create().
So that we don't have to make three mnt_want/drop_write()
calls inside of the switch statement, we move some of its
logic outside of the switch and into a helper function
suggested by Christoph.
This also encapsulates a fix for mknod(S_IFREG) that Miklos
found.
