The patch titled
rtc: push the BKL down into the driver ioctl method
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
rtc-push-the-bkl-down-into-the-driver-ioctl-method.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: rtc: push the BKL down into the driver ioctl method
From: Alan Cox <alan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
For now just wrap the main logic, but this driver is a prime candidate for
someone wanting to eliminate the lock entirely
[lizf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx: fix build failure]
