The quilt patch titled Subject: mm/hugetlb: remove unnecessary huge_ptep_set_access_flags() in hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-hugetlb-remove-unnecessary-huge_ptep_set_access_flags-in-hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: Baolin Wang <baolin.wang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/hugetlb: remove unnecessary huge_ptep_set_access_flags() in hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte() Date: Fri, 27 May 2022 10:01:35 +0800 There is no need to update the hugetlb access flags after just setting the hugetlb page table entry by set_huge_pte_at(), since the page table entry value has no changes. Thus remove the unnecessary huge_ptep_set_access_flags() in hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte().
