Subject: [PATCH] vmalloc.c patch for 2.4.20-pre8-ac3
Date: Mon, 30 Sep 2002 19:44:32 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20021001004432.GA4230@debian> (raw)
Hi.
It looks like the small vmalloc.c patch didn't make it into
2.4.20-pre8-ac3. The patch is needed because the wrong variable
is passed to kfree().
