The quilt patch titled
     Subject: selftests: clarify common error when running gup_test
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     selftests-clarify-common-error-when-running-gup_test.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mm-stable

------------------------------------------------------
From: Joel Savitz <jsavitz@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: selftests: clarify common error when running gup_test

The gup_test binary will fail showing only the output of perror("open") in
the case that /sys/kernel/debug/gup_test is not found. This will almost
always be due to CONFIG_GUP_TEST not being set, which enables
compilation of a kernel that provides this file.

Add a short error message to clarify this failure and point the user to
the solution.
