The quilt patch titled Subject: mempolicy: clean up minor dead code in queue_pages_test_walk() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mempolicy-clean-up-minor-dead-code-in-queue_pages_test_walk.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: Lukas Bulwahn <lukas.bulwahn@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: mempolicy: clean up minor dead code in queue_pages_test_walk() Date: Mon, 22 Jan 2024 10:25:04 +0100 Commit 2cafb582173f ("mempolicy: remove confusing MPOL_MF_LAZY dead code") removes MPOL_MF_LAZY handling in queue_pages_test_walk(), and with that, there is no effective use of the local variable endvma in that function remaining. Remove the local variable endvma and its dead code. No functional change. This issue was identified with clang-analyzer's dead stores analysis.
