The patch titled
x86: Always probe the NMI watchdog
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
always-probe-the-nmi-watchdog.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: x86: Always probe the NMI watchdog
From: Björn Steinbrink <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
The performance counter allocator relies on the nmi watchdog being probed, so
we have to do that even if the watchdog is not enabled.
