The patch titled Subject: drivers/video/backlight/lm3533_bl.c: use devm_ functions has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was drivers-video-backlight-lm3533_blc-use-devm_-functions.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Jingoo Han <jg1.han@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: drivers/video/backlight/lm3533_bl.c: use devm_ functions The devm_ functions allocate memory that is released when a driver detaches. This patch uses devm_kzalloc of these functions.
