The patch titled
Subject: mm/filemap.c: fix NULL pointer in page_cache_tree_insert()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
fix-null-pointer-in-page_cache_tree_insert.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: mm/filemap.c: fix NULL pointer in page_cache_tree_insert()
f2fs specifies the __GFP_ZERO flag for allocating some of its pages.
Unfortunately, the page cache also uses the mapping's GFP flags for
allocating radix tree nodes. It always masked off the __GFP_HIGHMEM
flag, and masks off __GFP_ZERO in some paths, but not all. That causes
radix tree nodes to be allocated with a NULL list_head, which causes
backtraces like:
[<ffffff80086f4de0>] __list_del_entry+0x30/0xd0
[<ffffff8008362018>] list_lru_del+0xac/0x1ac
[<ffffff800830f04c>] page_cache_tree_insert+0xd8/0x110
The __GFP_DMA and __GFP_DMA32 flags would also be able to sneak through if
they are ever used. Fix them all by using GFP_RECLAIM_MASK at the
innermost location, and remove it from earlier in the callchain.
