The patch titled drivers/platform/x86/acerhdf.c: check BIOS information whether it begins with string of table has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was drivers-platform-x86-acerhdfc-check-bios-information-whether-it-begins-with-string-of-table.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/platform/x86/acerhdf.c: check BIOS information whether it begins with string of table From: Peter Feuerer <peter@xxxxxxxx> BIOS information is now checked whether it begins with the strings stored in the BIOS table. Previous method did a strcmp, what lead to problems if BIOS information has appended whitespaces.
