The patch titled
vfs: make security_inode_setattr() calling consistent
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
vfs-make-security_inode_setattr-calling-consistent.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: vfs: make security_inode_setattr() calling consistent
From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxx>
Call security_inode_setattr() consistently before inode_change_ok(). It
doesn't make sense to try to "optimize" the i_op->setattr == NULL case, as
most filesystem do define their own setattr function.
