The quilt patch titled Subject: mm/page_alloc: remove obsolete gfpflags_normal_context() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-page_alloc-remove-obsolete-gfpflags_normal_context.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: Miaohe Lin <linmiaohe@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/page_alloc: remove obsolete gfpflags_normal_context() Date: Fri, 16 Sep 2022 15:22:56 +0800 Since commit dacb5d8875cc ("tcp: fix page frag corruption on page fault"), there's no caller of gfpflags_normal_context(). Remove it as this helper is strictly tied to the sk page frag usage and there won't be other user in the future.
