The patch titled
Subject: vmcore: read buffers for vmcore objects copied from old memory
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was

This patch was dropped because it was nacked
------------------------------------------------------
From: HATAYAMA Daisuke <d.hatayama@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: vmcore: read buffers for vmcore objects copied from old memory
If flag MEM_TYPE_CURRENT_KERNEL is set, the object is copied in the buffer
on the 2nd kernel, then read_vmcore() reads the buffer. If the flag is
not set, read_vmcore() reads old memory as usual.
