The patch titled
Subject: bitmap: use memcmp optimisation in more situations
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
bitmap-use-memcmp-optimisation-in-more-situations.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: bitmap: use memcmp optimisation in more situations
Commit 7dd968163f ("bitmap: bitmap_equal memcmp optimization") was rather
more restrictive than necessary; we can use memcmp() to implement
bitmap_equal() as long as the number of bits can be proved to be a
multiple of 8. And architectures other than s390 may be able to make good
use of this optimisation.
