The patch titled Subject: mm/vmscan: Consider anonymous pages without swap has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-vmscan-consider-anonymous-pages-without-swap.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Keith Busch <kbusch@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/vmscan: Consider anonymous pages without swap Reclaim anonymous pages if a migration path is available now that demotion provides a non-swap recourse for reclaiming anon pages. Note that this check is subtly different from the can_age_anon_pages() checks. This mechanism checks whether a specific page in a specific context can actually be reclaimed, given current swap space and cgroup limits. can_age_anon_pages() is a much simpler and more preliminary check which just says whether there is a possibility of future reclaim.
