The patch titled
     Make unregister_binfmt() return void
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     make-unregister_binfmt-return-void.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: Make unregister_binfmt() return void
From: Alexey Dobriyan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

list_del() hardly can fail, so checking for return value is pointless
(and current code always return 0).

Nobody really cared that return value anyway.
