The patch titled
Subject: mm, page_alloc: avoid page_to_pfn() when merging buddies
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: mm, page_alloc: avoid page_to_pfn() when merging buddies
On architectures that allow memory holes, page_is_buddy() has to perform
page_to_pfn() to check for the memory hole. After the previous patch, we
have the pfn already available in __free_one_page(), which is the only
caller of page_is_buddy(), so move the check there and avoid
page_to_pfn().
