The patch titled
pidns: make pid->level and pid_ns->level unsigned
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
pidns-make-pid-level-and-pid_ns-level-unsigned.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: pidns: make pid->level and pid_ns->level unsigned
From: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@xxxxxxxxxx>
These values represent the nesting level of a namespace and pids living in it,
and it's always non-negative.
Turning this from int to unsigned int saves some space in pid.c (11 bytes on
x86 and 64 on ia64) by letting the compiler optimize the pid_nr_ns a bit.
E.g. on ia64 this removes the sign extension calls, which compiler adds to
optimize access to pid->nubers[ns->level].
