The patch titled Subject: mm: memcontrol: drain memcg stock on force_empty has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-memcontrol-drain-memcg-stock-on-force_empty.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Junaid Shahid <junaids@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: memcontrol: drain memcg stock on force_empty The per-cpu memcg stock can retain a charge of upto 32 pages. On a machine with large number of cpus, this can amount to a decent amount of memory. Additionally force_empty interface might be triggering unneeded memcg reclaims.
