The patch titled Subject: mm/vmalloc.c: switch to WARN_ON() and move it under unlink_va() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-vmap-switch-to-warn_on-and-move-it-under-unlink_va.patch This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Uladzislau Rezki (Sony)" <urezki@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/vmalloc.c: switch to WARN_ON() and move it under unlink_va() Trigger a warning if an object that is about to be freed is detached. We used to have a BUG_ON(), but even though it is considered as faulty behaviour that is not a good reason to break a system.
