The quilt patch titled Subject: lib/stackdepot: store next pool pointer in new_pool has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was lib-stackdepot-store-next-pool-pointer-in-new_pool.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: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: lib/stackdepot: store next pool pointer in new_pool Date: Mon, 20 Nov 2023 18:47:08 +0100 Instead of using the last pointer in stack_pools for storing the pointer to a new pool (which does not yet store any stack records), use a new new_pool variable. This a purely code readability change: it seems more logical to store the pointer to a pool with a special meaning in a dedicated variable.
