The patch titled
Subject: mm, page_alloc: defer debugging checks of freed pages until a PCP drain
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-page_alloc-defer-debugging-checks-of-freed-pages-until-a-pcp-drain.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: mm, page_alloc: defer debugging checks of freed pages until a PCP drain
Every page free checks a number of page fields for validity. This catches
premature frees and corruptions but it is also expensive. This patch
weakens the debugging check by checking PCP pages at the time they are
drained from the PCP list. This will trigger the bug but the site that
freed the corrupt page will be lost. To get the full context, a kernel
rebuild with DEBUG_VM is necessary.
