The quilt patch titled
Subject: mm/ksm: convert scan_get_next_rmap_item() from follow_page() to folio_walk
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-ksm-convert-scan_get_next_rmap_item-from-follow_page-to-folio_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

Subject: mm/ksm: convert scan_get_next_rmap_item() from follow_page() to folio_walk
Date: Fri, 2 Aug 2024 17:55:19 +0200
Let's use folio_walk instead, for example avoiding taking temporary folio
references if the folio does obviously not even apply and getting rid of
one more follow_page() user. We cannot move all handling under the PTL,
so leave the rmap handling (which implies an allocation) out.
Note that zeropages obviously don't apply: old code could just have
specified FOLL_DUMP. Further, we don't care about losing the secretmem
check in follow_page(): these are never anon pages and
vma_ksm_compatible() would never consider secretmem vmas (VM_SHARED |
VM_MAYSHARE must be set for secretmem, see secretmem_mmap()).
