The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm: remove folio_pincount_ptr() and head_compound_pincount()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-remove-folio_pincount_ptr-and-head_compound_pincount.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

Subject: mm: remove folio_pincount_ptr() and head_compound_pincount()
Date: Wed, 11 Jan 2023 14:28:47 +0000

We can use folio->_pincount directly, since all users are guarded by tests
of compound/large.
