The patch titled Subject: fs/proc/kcore: use page_offline_(freeze|thaw) has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was fs-proc-kcore-use-page_offline_freezethaw.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: David Hildenbrand <david@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: fs/proc/kcore: use page_offline_(freeze|thaw) Let's properly synchronize with drivers that set PageOffline(). Unfreeze/thaw every now and then, so drivers that want to set PageOffline() can make progress.
