The patch titled
     kill my_ptrace_child()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     kill-my_ptrace_child.patch

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

Subject: kill my_ptrace_child()
From: Oleg Nesterov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Now that my_ptrace_child() is trivial we can use the "p->ptrace & PT_PTRACED"
inline and simplify the corresponding logic in do_wait: we can't find the
child in TASK_TRACED state without PT_PTRACED flag set, ptrace_untrace()
either sets TASK_STOPPED or wakes up the tracee.
