The patch titled Subject: userfaultfd: wp: don't wake up when doing write protect has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was userfaultfd-wp-dont-wake-up-when-doing-write-protect.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Peter Xu <peterx@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: userfaultfd: wp: don't wake up when doing write protect It does not make sense to try to wake up any waiting thread when we're write-protecting a memory region. Only wake up when resolving a write protected page fault.
