The patch titled
Subject: mm/memcontrol.c: make the walk_page_range() limit obvious
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-memcontrol-make-the-walk_page_range-limit-obvious.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: James Morse <james.morse@xxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/memcontrol.c: make the walk_page_range() limit obvious
mem_cgroup_count_precharge() and mem_cgroup_move_charge() both call
walk_page_range() on the range 0 to ~0UL, neither provide a pte_hole
callback, which causes the current implementation to skip non-vma
regions. This is all fine but follow up changes would like to make
walk_page_range more generic so it is better to be explicit about which
range to traverse so let's use highest_vm_end to explicitly traverse
only user mmaped memory.
