The patch titled Subject: x86: pageattr-test: remove srandom32 call has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was x86-pageattr-test-remove-srandom32-call.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: x86: pageattr-test: remove srandom32 call pageattr-test calls srandom32() once every test iteration. But calling srandom32() after late_initcalls is not meaningfull. Because the random states for random32() is mixed by good random numbers in late_initcall prandom_reseed(). So this removes the call to srandom32(). Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@xxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: H.
