The patch titled
Subject: mempolicy: kill do_set_mempolicy()->down_write(&mm->mmap_sem)
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mempolicy-kill-do_set_mempolicy-down_writemm-mmap_sem.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mempolicy: kill do_set_mempolicy()->down_write(&mm->mmap_sem)
Remove down_write(&mm->mmap_sem) in do_set_mempolicy(). This logic
was never correct and it is no longer needed, see the previous patch.
