The patch titled Subject: mm/thp: narrow lru locking has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-thp-narrow-lru-locking.patch This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged ------------------------------------------------------ From: Alex Shi <alex.shi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/thp: narrow lru locking lru_lock and page cache xa_lock have no reason with current sequence, put them together isn't necessary. let's narrow the lru locking, but left the local_irq_disable to block interrupt re-entry and statistic update. Hugh Dickins point: split_huge_page_to_list() was already silly,to be using the _irqsave variant: it's just been taking sleeping locks, so would already be broken if entered with interrupts enabled. so we can save passing flags argument down to __split_huge_page().
