The quilt patch titled Subject: maple_tree: root node could be handled by !p_slot too has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was maple_tree-root-node-could-be-handled-by-p_slot-too.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: Wei Yang <richard.weiyang@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: maple_tree: root node could be handled by !p_slot too Date: Fri, 13 Sep 2024 06:31:28 +0000 For a root node, mte_parent_slot() return 0, this exactly fits the following !p_slot check. So we can remove the special handling for root node.
