The patch titled acpi_pad: "processor_aggregator" name too long has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was acpi_pad-processor_aggregator-name-too-long.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: acpi_pad: "processor_aggregator" name too long From: Dan Carpenter <error27@xxxxxxxxx> cpi_device_class can only be 19 characters and a NULL terminator.
