The quilt patch titled

has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
maple_tree-remove-extra-smp_wmb-from-mas_dead_leaves.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

Subject: maple_tree: remove extra smp_wmb() from mas_dead_leaves()
Date: Mon, 27 Feb 2023 09:36:03 -0800
The call to mte_set_dead_node() before the smp_wmb() already calls
smp_wmb() so this is not needed. This is an optimization for the RCU mode
of the maple tree.
