The patch titled
Subject: asm-generic: fix compilation failure in cmpxchg_double()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
asm-generic-fix-compilation-failure-in-cmpxchg_double.patch
This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged
------------------------------------------------------
From: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com>
Subject: asm-generic: fix compilation failure in cmpxchg_double()
Arnd reported that the new code leads to compilation failures with some
versions of gcc. I've filed gcc issue 72873, but we need a kernel fix as
well.
Remove instrumentation from cmpxchg_double() for now.
