The patch titled mm/dmapool.c: use TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE in dma_pool_alloc() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-dmapoolc-use-task_uninterruptible-in-dma_pool_alloc.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/dmapool.c: use TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE in dma_pool_alloc() From: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> As it stands this code will degenerate into a busy-wait if the calling task has signal_pending().
