The patch titled
     x86_32: fix VisualWS and Voyager kexec build failures
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     x86_32-fix-visualws-and-voyager-kexec-build-failures.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: x86_32: fix VisualWS and Voyager kexec build failures
From: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@xxxxxxxxxx>

Both Visual WS and Voyager builds fail in almost the same way (in linux-next)
without this patch:

VOYAGER:
kernel/built-in.o: In function `crash_kexec':
(.text+0x28588): undefined reference to `machine_crash_shutdown'

VISWS:
kernel/built-in.o: In function `crash_kexec':
/next-20080401/kernel/kexec.c:1074: undefined reference to `machine_crash_shutdown'
make[1]: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

because arch/x86/kernel/reboot.c isn't built since CONFIG_X86_BIOS_REBOOT=n,
so machine_crash_shutdown() isn't available.

This patch does seem a small bit odd since the KEXEC help text says that
kexec is independent of the system firmware.
