The patch titled sysctl extern cleanup: binfmts has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was sysctl-extern-cleanup-binfmts.patch This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: sysctl extern cleanup: binfmts From: Dave Young <hidave.darkstar@xxxxxxxxx> Extern declarations in sysctl.c should be moved to their own header file, and then include them in relavant .c files. Move core_uses_pid/core_pattern/core_pipe_limit extern declarations to linux/binfmts.h. suid_dumpable is declared in binfmts.h already.
