The patch titled
Subject: mm/filemap.c: rewrite pagecache_get_page documentation
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-rewrite-pagecache_get_page-documentation.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/filemap.c: rewrite pagecache_get_page documentation
- These were never called PCG flags; they've been called FGP flags since
their introduction in 2014.
- The FGP_FOR_MMAP flag was misleadingly documented as if it was an
alternative to FGP_CREAT instead of an option to it.
- Rename the 'offset' parameter to 'index'.
- Capitalisation, formatting, rewording.
