The patch titled
x86: reserve the right performance counter for the Intel PerfMon NMI
watchdog
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
reserve-the-right-performance-counter-for-the-intel-perfmon-nmi-watchdog.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: x86: reserve the right performance counter for the Intel PerfMon NMI
watchdog
From: Björn Steinbrink <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
The Intel PerfMon NMI watchdog was using the generic reservation function
which always reserves the first performance counter. But the watchdog
actually uses the second performance counter, thus we need a specialised
function.
