The quilt patch titled Subject: fs/buffer: replace ll_rw_block() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was fs-buffer-replace-ll_rw_block.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: Zhang Yi <yi.zhang@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: fs/buffer: replace ll_rw_block() Date: Thu, 1 Sep 2022 21:34:54 +0800 ll_rw_block() is not safe for the sync IO path because it skip buffers which has been locked by others, it could lead to false positive EIO when submitting read IO. So stop using ll_rw_block(), switch to use new helpers which could guarantee buffer locked and submit IO if needed.
