[merged] autofs-use-autofs_dev_ioctl_size.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm@linux-foundation.org]

The patch titled
     Subject: autofs: use AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_SIZE
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     autofs-use-autofs_dev_ioctl_size.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
From: Tomohiro Kusumi <tkusumi@tuxera.com>
Subject: autofs: use AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_SIZE

Use a macro which defines misc-dev ioctl parameter size (excluding a path
beyond &path[0]) since it's been used to initialize and copy this
structure ever since it first appeared in 8d7b48e0 in 2008.

(or simply get rid of this if this is just unnecessary abstraction when
all it needs is sizeof(struct autofs_dev_ioctl))

Edit: raven@themaw.net
That's a good point but I'd prefer to keep the macro define.
End edit: raven@themaw.net
