The patch titled
Subject: lib: turn CONFIG_STACKTRACE into an actual option.
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
lib-turn-config_stacktrace-into-an-actual-option.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com>
Subject: lib: turn CONFIG_STACKTRACE into an actual option.
I was puzzled why /proc/$$/stack had disappeared, until I figured out I
had disabled the last debug option that did a 'select STACKTRACE'. This
patch makes the option show up at config time, so it can be enabled
without enabling any of the more heavyweight debug options.
