The patch titled
Subject: mm: use early_pfn_to_nid in page_ext_init
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-use-early_pfn_to_nid-in-page_ext_init.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Yang Shi <yang.shi@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm: use early_pfn_to_nid in page_ext_init
page_ext_init() checks suitable pages with pfn_to_nid(), but pfn_to_nid()
depends on memmap which will not be setup fully until
page_alloc_init_late() is done. Use early_pfn_to_nid() instead of
pfn_to_nid() so that page extension could be still used early even though
CONFIG_ DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is enabled and catch early page
allocation call sites.
Suggested by Joonsoo Kim [1], this fix basically undoes the change
introduced by commit b8f1a75d61d840 ("mm: call page_ext_init() after all
struct pages are initialized") and fixes the same problem with a better
approach.
