The patch titled mm: remove gfp mask from pcpu_get_vm_areas has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-remove-gfp-mask-from-pcpu_get_vm_areas.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: mm: remove gfp mask from pcpu_get_vm_areas From: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx> pcpu_get_vm_areas() only uses GFP_KERNEL allocations, so remove the gfp_t formal and use the mask internally.
