The patch titled
ipc: restore MSGPOOL original value
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was

Subject: ipc: restore MSGPOOL original value
From: Nadia Derbey <Nadia.Derbey@xxxxxxxx>
When posting:
[PATCH 1/8] Scaling msgmni to the amount of lowmem
(see http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/637849/) I changed the
MSGPOOL value to make it fit what is said in the man pages (i.e. a size
in bytes).
But Michael Kerrisk rightly complained that this change could affect the
ABI. So I'm posting this patch to make MSGPOOL expressed back in Kbytes.
Michael, on his side, has fixed the man page.
