The patch titled
     Subject: kstrto*: add documentation
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     kstrto-add-documentation.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
From: Eldad Zack <eldad@fogrefinery.com>
Subject: kstrto*: add documentation

As Bruce Fields pointed out, kstrto* is currently lacking kerneldoc
comments.  This patch adds kerneldoc comments to common variants of
kstrto*: kstrto(u)l, kstrto(u)ll and kstrto(u)int.
