The patch titled Subject: mm, page_alloc: pull no_progress_loops update to should_reclaim_retry() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-page_alloc-pull-no_progress_loops-update-to-should_reclaim_retry.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@xxxxxxx> Subject: mm, page_alloc: pull no_progress_loops update to should_reclaim_retry() The should_reclaim_retry() makes decisions based on no_progress_loops, so it makes sense to also update the counter there. It will be also consistent with should_compact_retry() and compaction_retries. No functional change.
