The quilt patch titled
Subject: mm/vmalloc: refactor __vmalloc_node_range_noprof()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-vmalloc-refactoring-function-__vmalloc_node_range_noprof.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/vmalloc: refactor __vmalloc_node_range_noprof()
Date: Thu, 6 Mar 2025 15:21:31 +0800
According to the code logic, the first parameter of the sub-function
__get_vm_area_node() should be size instead of real_size.
Then in __get_vm_area_node(), the size will be aligned, so the redundant
alignment operation is deleted.
The use of the real_size variable causes code redundancy, so it is removed
to simplify the code.
The real prefix is generally used to indicate the adjusted value of a
parameter, but according to the code logic, it should indicate the
original value, so it is recommended to rename it to original_align.
