The patch titled
     sgiioc4: Disable module unload
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     sgiioc4-disable-module-unload.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: sgiioc4: Disable module unload
From: Jeremy Higdon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

This patch removes a module_exit function that sgiioc4 should not have had.

It seems that the IDE layer doesn't support submodule unloading.  sgiioc4 was
the only driver in drivers/ide/pci that had an exit function.  After an
unload, the devices would stay around and the next attempt to reference would
crash...
