The patch titled Add kerneldoc documentation for new printk format extensions has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was add-kerneldoc-documentation-for-new-printk-format-extensions.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: Add kerneldoc documentation for new printk format extensions From: Andi Kleen <andi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Add documentation in kerneldoc for new printk format extensions This patch documents the new %pS/%pF options in printk in kernel doc. Hope I didn't miss any other extension.
