The patch titled Subject: fs/buffer.c: change type of max_buffer_heads to unsigned long has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was fs-bufferc-change-type-of-max_buffer_heads-to-unsigned-long.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Zhang Yanfei <zhangyanfei@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: fs/buffer.c: change type of max_buffer_heads to unsigned long max_buffer_heads is calculated from nr_free_buffer_pages(), so change its type to unsigned long in case of overflow.
