The patch titled lib: remove abs64(), rework abs() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was lib-remove-abs64-rework-abs.patch This patch was dropped because it was nacked The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: lib: remove abs64(), rework abs() From: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@xxxxxxxxx> We don't need no stinking abs64() given some GCC extensions (especially __builtin_choose_expr()). One abs() implementation is better than two abs() implementations. New abs() doesn't expand type needlessly. akpm: this patch changes the return type of abs() in all cases.
