The patch titled
hugetlbfs: add NULL check in hugetlb_zero_setup()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: hugetlbfs: add NULL check in hugetlb_zero_setup()
From: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@xxxxxxxxx>
If hugetlbfs module_init() fails, hugetlbfs_vfsmount is not initialized and
shmget() with SHM_HUGETLB flag will cause NULL pointer dereference.
