The patch titled utsname.h: make new_utsname fields use the proper length constant has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was utsnameh-make-new_utsname-fields-use-the-proper-length-constant.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: utsname.h: make new_utsname fields use the proper length constant From: Dan Smith <danms@xxxxxxxxxx> The members of the new_utsname structure are defined with magic numbers that *should* correspond to the constant __NEW_UTS_LEN+1. Everywhere else, code assumes this and uses the constant, so this patch makes the structure match.
