The patch titled Subject: virtio-balloon: pull page poisoning config out of free page hinting has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was virtio-balloon-pull-page-poisoning-config-out-of-free-page-hinting.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: virtio-balloon: pull page poisoning config out of free page hinting Currently the page poisoning setting wasn't being enabled unless free page hinting was enabled. However we will need the page poisoning tracking logic as well for free page reporting. As such pull it out and make it a separate bit of config in the probe function. In addition we need to add support for the more recent init_on_free feature which expects a behavior similar to page poisoning in that we expect the page to be pre-zeroed.
