The patch titled Subject: kernel/sys.c: use the simpler call_usermodehelper() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kernel-sysc-use-the-simpler-call_usermodehelper.patch This patch was dropped because it is obsolete ------------------------------------------------------ From: Lucas De Marchi <lucas.demarchi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: kernel/sys.c: use the simpler call_usermodehelper() Commit 7ff6764 ("usermodehelper: cleanup/fix __orderly_poweroff() && argv_free()") simplified __orderly_poweroff() removing the need to use call_usermodehelper_fns(). Since we are not passing any callback, it's simpler to use call_usermodehelper().
