The quilt patch titled Subject: maple_tree: detect dead nodes in mas_start() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was maple_tree-detect-dead-nodes-in-mas_start.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: Liam Howlett <Liam.Howlett@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: maple_tree: detect dead nodes in mas_start() Date: Mon, 27 Feb 2023 09:36:01 -0800 When initially starting a search, the root node may already be in the process of being replaced in RCU mode. Detect and restart the walk if this is the case. This is necessary for RCU mode of the maple tree.
