     Subject: drivers/virt/fsl_hypervisor.c: use get_user_pages_unlocked()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     drivers-virt-use-get_user_pages_unlocked.patch

------------------------------------------------------
From: Lorenzo Stoakes <lstoakes@xxxxxxxxx>
Subject: drivers/virt/fsl_hypervisor.c: use get_user_pages_unlocked()

Moving from get_user_pages() to get_user_pages_unlocked() simplifies the code
and takes advantage of VM_FAULT_RETRY functionality when faulting in pages.
