The patch titled
Subject: ext4: use ext4_get_block_write() for DAX
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Matthew Wilcox <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: ext4: use ext4_get_block_write() for DAX
DAX relies on the get_block function either zeroing newly allocated blocks
before they're findable by subsequent calls to get_block, or marking newly
allocated blocks as unwritten. ext4_get_block() cannot create unwritten
extents, but ext4_get_block_write() can.
