The patch titled
     prevent dereferencing non-allocated per_cpu variables
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-prevent-dereferencing-non-allocated-per_cpu-variables.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: prevent dereferencing non-allocated per_cpu variables
From: Mike Travis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Change loops controlled by 'for (i = 0; i < NR_CPUS; i++)' to use
'for_each_possible_cpu(i)' when there's a _remote possibility_ of
dereferencing a non-allocated per_cpu variable involved.

All files except mm/vmstat.c are x86 arch.

Thanks to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for pointing this out.
