The patch titled
Subject: mm/sparse.c: fix ALIGN() without power of 2 in sparse_buffer_alloc()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-sparse-fix-align-without-power-of-2-in-sparse_buffer_alloc.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: mm/sparse.c: fix ALIGN() without power of 2 in sparse_buffer_alloc()
The size argument passed into sparse_buffer_alloc() has already been
aligned with PAGE_SIZE or PMD_SIZE.
If the size after aligned is not power of 2 (e.g. 0x480000), the
PTR_ALIGN() will return wrong value. Use roundup to round sparsemap_buf
up to next multiple of size.
