The patch titled
     Subject: mm/gup: require FOLL_GET for get_user_pages_fast()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was

------------------------------------------------------
From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/gup: require FOLL_GET for get_user_pages_fast()

Internal to mm/gup.c, require that get_user_pages_fast() and
__get_user_pages_fast() identify themselves, by setting FOLL_GET.  This is
required in order to be able to make decisions based on "FOLL_PIN, or
FOLL_GET, or both or neither are set", in upcoming patches.
