The patch titled drivers/staging/epl: do not use CLONE_SIGHAND with allow_signal() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was drivers-staging-epl-do-not-use-clone_sighand-with-allow_signal.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: drivers/staging/epl: do not use CLONE_SIGHAND with allow_signal() From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx> Not sure this patch is really needed since kernel_thread() is deprecated (and checkpatch.pl complains). But we should not use kernel_thread(CLONE_SIGHAND) if we are going to play with signals.
