The patch titled
Subject: mm/memory.c: refactor insert_page to prepare for batched-lock insert
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Arjun Roy <arjunroy@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/memory.c: refactor insert_page to prepare for batched-lock insert
Add helper methods for vm_insert_page()/insert_page() to prepare for
vm_insert_pages(), which batch-inserts pages to reduce spinlock operations
when inserting multiple consecutive pages into the user page table.
The intention of this patch-set is to reduce atomic ops for tcp zerocopy
receives, which normally hits the same spinlock multiple times
consecutively.
