The patch titled cgroup files: convert res_counter_write() to be a cgroups write_string() handler has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was cgroup-files-convert-res_counter_write-to-be-a-cgroups-write_string-handler.patch This patch was dropped because it is obsolete The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: cgroup files: convert res_counter_write() to be a cgroups write_string() handler From: Paul Menage <menage@xxxxxxxxxx> Currently read_counter_write() is a raw file handler even though it's ultimately taking a number, since in some cases it wants to pre-process the string when converting it to a number. This patch converts res_counter_write() from a raw file handler to a write_string() handler; this allows some of the boilerplate copying/locking/checking to be removed, and simplies the cleanup path, since these functions are now performed by the cgroups framework.
