The patch titled random: kmalloc failure ignored in init_std_data() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was random-kmalloc-failure-ignored-in-init_std_data.patch This patch was dropped because it had testing failures The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: random: kmalloc failure ignored in init_std_data() From: Roel Kluin <roel.kluin@xxxxxxxxx> kmalloc may fail so build the array into the statically allocated pool structures instead.
