The quilt patch titled
Subject: mm/vmstat: use this_cpu_try_cmpxchg in mod_{zone,node}_state
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-vmstat-use-this_cpu_try_cmpxchg-in-mod_zonenode_state.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/vmstat: use this_cpu_try_cmpxchg in mod_{zone,node}_state
Date: Mon, 4 Sep 2023 17:08:49 +0200
Use this_cpu_try_cmpxchg instead of this_cpu_cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) ==
old in mod_zone_state and mod_node_state. x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns
success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg (and
related move instruction in front of cmpxchg).
Also, try_cmpxchg implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when cmpxchg
fails. There is no need to re-read the value in the loop.
No functional change intended.
