The patch titled Do not block align PFN when looking up the pageblock PFN has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was add-a-bitmap-that-is-used-to-track-flags-affecting-a-block-of-pages-fix.patch This patch was dropped because it was folded into add-a-bitmap-that-is-used-to-track-flags-affecting-a-block-of-pages.patch ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: Do not block align PFN when looking up the pageblock PFN From: Mel Gorman <mel@xxxxxxxxx> The pageblock flags store bits representing a MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES block of pages. When calling get_pageblock_bitmap(), a non-aligned PFN is passed which is then aligned to the MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES block. This alignment is unnecessary. This patch should be considered a fix to the patch add-a-bitmap-that-is-used-to-track-flags-affecting-a-block-of-pages.patch .
