This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled metag/usercopy: Drop unused macros to the 4.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: metag-usercopy-drop-unused-macros.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From ef62a2d81f73d9cddef14bc3d9097a57010d551c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Hogan <james.hogan@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 31 Mar 2017 10:37:44 +0100 Subject: metag/usercopy: Drop unused macros From: James Hogan <james.hogan@xxxxxxxxxx> commit ef62a2d81f73d9cddef14bc3d9097a57010d551c upstream. Metag's lib/usercopy.c has a bunch of copy_from_user macros for larger copies between 5 and 16 bytes which are completely unused. Before fixing zeroing lets drop these macros so there is less to fix.
