The patch titled
Subject: provide linux/set_memory.h
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
provide-linux-set_memoryh.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
Subject: provide linux/set_memory.h
Currently code that wants to use set_memory_ro() etc, needs to include
asm/set_memory.h, which doesn't exist on all arches. Some code knows it
only builds on arches which have the header, other code guards the
inclusion with an #ifdef, neither is ideal.
So create linux/set_memory.h. This always exists, so users don't need an
#ifdef just to include the header.
When CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY=y it includes asm/set_memory.h, otherwise
it provides empty non-failing implementations.
