It is not a big trouble yet, but keeping an obsolete patch that not very
straightforward to figure out that it will be superseded by the panic_on_taint
patch will only cause more confusion the longer it has stayed in linux-next.
The thing is that even if you can’t get this panic_on_taint (the superior
solution) patch accepted for some reasons, someone else could still work on it
until it get merged.
Thus, I failed to see any possibility we will go back to the inferior solution
(mm-slub-add-panic_on_error-to-the-debug-facilities.patch) by all means.
