The patch titled Subject: mm/memory_hotplug.c: drop node_online check in unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-memory_hotplug-drop-node_online-check-in-unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes.patch This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged ------------------------------------------------------ From: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@xxxxxxx> Subject: mm/memory_hotplug.c: drop node_online check in unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes We are getting the nid from the pages that are not yet removed, but a node can only be offline when its memory/cpu's have been removed. Therefore, we know that the node is still online.
