The patch titled Subject: mm: check that we haven't used more than 32 bits in address_space.flags has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-check-that-we-havent-used-more-than-32-bits-in-address_spaceflags.patch This patch was dropped because it is obsolete ------------------------------------------------------ From: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: check that we haven't used more than 32 bits in address_space.flags After "mm: don't use radix tree writeback tags for pages in swap cache", all the flags are now used up on 32-bit builds. Add a build-time assertion to prevent 64-bit developers from accidentally breaking things.
