The quilt patch titled Subject: vmscan: convert dirty page handling to folios has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was vmscan-convert-dirty-page-handling-to-folios.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch\nof git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: vmscan: convert dirty page handling to folios Mostly this just eliminates calls to compound_head(), but NR_VMSCAN_IMMEDIATE was being incremented by 1 instead of by nr_pages.
