The quilt patch titled
Subject: kmsan: do not round up pg_data_t size
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
kmsan-do-not-round-up-pg_data_t-size.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: kmsan: do not round up pg_data_t size
Date: Fri, 21 Jun 2024 13:34:59 +0200
x86's alloc_node_data() rounds up node data size to PAGE_SIZE. It's not
explained why it's needed, but it's most likely for performance reasons,
since the padding bytes are not used anywhere. Some other architectures
do it as well, e.g., mips rounds it up to the cache line size.
kmsan_init_shadow() initializes metadata for each node data and assumes
the x86 rounding, which does not match other architectures. This may
cause the range end to overshoot the end of available memory, in turn
causing virt_to_page_or_null() in kmsan_init_alloc_meta_for_range() to
return NULL, which leads to kernel panic shortly after.
Since the padding bytes are not used, drop the rounding.
