The patch titled
Subject: mm: call page_ext_init() after all struct pages are initialized
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-move-page_ext_init-after-all-struct-pages-are-initialized-v2.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: mm: call page_ext_init() after all struct pages are initialized
When DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is enabled, just a subset of memmap at boot
are initialized, then the rest are initialized in parallel by starting
one-off "pgdatinitX" kernel thread for each node X.
If page_ext_init is called before it, some pages will not have valid
extension, this may lead the below kernel oops when booting up kernel:

Move page_ext_init() after page_alloc_init_late() to make sure page extension
is setup for all pages.
