The patch titled
Subject: c/r: prctl: return -EFAULT instead of -EINVAL in case if underlied VMA is not found
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
c-r-prctl-return-efault-instead-of-einval-in-case-if-underlied-vma-is-not-found.patch
This patch was dropped because it was folded into c-r-prctl-extend-pr_set_mm-to-set-up-more-mm_struct-entries-v2.patch
The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

From: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: c/r: prctl: return -EFAULT instead of -EINVAL in case if underlied VMA is not found
In case if underlied VMA is not found prctl_set_mm will return -EINVAL,
but Michael proposed to return -EFAULT and Kosaki seconded. Make it so.
