The patch titled viafb: fix ioremap_nocache error handling has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was viafb-fix-ioremap_nocache-error-handling.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: viafb: fix ioremap_nocache error handling From: Florian Tobias Schandinat <FlorianSchandinat@xxxxxx> Correct the returned error code for remapping the video framebuffer. Introduce error handling for remapping MMIO register address space to avoid a NULL pointer dereference. Disable hardware acceleration if remapping MMIO register address space failed as those registers are only used for hardware acceleration.
