The patch titled
Subject: fs/proc/task_mmu.c: add user-space support for resetting mm->hiwater_rss (peak RSS)
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
task_mmu-add-user-space-support-for-resetting-mm-hiwater_rss-peak-rss.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: Petr Cermak <petrcermak@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: fs/proc/task_mmu.c: add user-space support for resetting mm->hiwater_rss (peak RSS)
Peak resident size of a process can be reset back to the process's current
rss value by writing "5" to /proc/pid/clear_refs. The driving use-case
for this would be getting the peak RSS value, which can be retrieved from
the VmHWM field in /proc/pid/status, per benchmark iteration or test
scenario.

Any other value written to /proc/PID/clear_refs will have no effect.
The /proc/pid/pagemap gives the PFN, which can be used to find the pageflags
