- x86-tracehook_signal_handler.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

The patch titled
     x86: tracehook_signal_handler
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     x86-tracehook_signal_handler.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: tracehook_signal_handler
From: Roland McGrath <roland@xxxxxxxxxx>

This makes the x86 signal handling code use tracehook_signal_handler() in
place of calling into ptrace guts.  The call is moved after the sa_mask
processing, but there is no other change.  This cleanup doesn't matter to
existing debuggers, but is the sensible thing: have all facets of the
handler setup complete before the debugger inspects the task again.
