The quilt patch titled

has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
liveupdate-propagate-file-deserialization-failures.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: liveupdate: propagate file deserialization failures

luo_session_deserialize() ignored the return value from
luo_file_deserialize(). As a result, a session could be left partially
restored even though the /dev/liveupdate open path treats deserialization
failures as fatal.
Propagate the error so a failed file deserialization aborts session
deserialization instead of silently continuing.
