The patch titled
cpu-timers: optimize run_posix_cpu_timers()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
cpu-timers-optimize-run_posix_cpu_timers.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: cpu-timers: optimize run_posix_cpu_timers()
From: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@xxxxxxxxxx>
We can optimize and simplify things taking into account signal->cputimer
is always running when we have configured any process wide cpu timer.
In check_process_timers(), we don't have to check if new updated value of
signal->cputime_expires is smaller, since we maintain new first expiration
time ({prof,virt,sched}_expires) in code flow and all other writes to
expiration cache are protected by sighand->siglock .
