The patch titled devpts: merge code for single and multiple-instance mounts has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was devpts-merge-code-for-single-and-multiple-instance-mounts.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: devpts: merge code for single and multiple-instance mounts From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> new_pts_mount() (including the get_sb_nodev()), shares a lot of code with init_pts_mount(). The only difference between them is the 'test-super' function passed into sget(). Move all common code into devpts_get_sb() and remove the new_pts_mount() and init_pts_mount() functions, Signed-off-by: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Serge Hallyn <serue@xxxxxxxxxx> Tested-by: Serge Hallyn <serue@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> Cc: Alan Cox <alan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: "H.
