The patch titled
     Subject: mm: uninitialized struct page poisoning sanity checking
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-uninitialized-struct-page-poisoning-sanity-checking.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
From: Pavel Tatashin <pasha.tatashin@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm: uninitialized struct page poisoning sanity checking

During boot we poison struct page memory in order to ensure that no one is
accessing this memory until the struct pages are initialized in
__init_single_page().

This patch adds more scrutiny to this checking by making sure that flags
do not equal the poison pattern when they are accessed.  The pattern is
all ones.

Since node id is also stored in struct page, and may be accessed quite
early, we add this enforcement into page_to_nid() function as well.  Note,
this is applicable only when NODE_NOT_IN_PAGE_FLAGS=n
