The patch titled Subject: mm, vmalloc: remove VM_VPAGES has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-vmalloc-remove-vm_vpages.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm, vmalloc: remove VM_VPAGES VM_VPAGES is unnecessary, it's easier to check is_vmalloc_addr() when reading /proc/vmallocinfo.
