The patch titled readahead: compacting file_ra_state has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was readahead-compacting-file_ra_state.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: readahead: compacting file_ra_state From: Fengguang Wu <wfg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Use 'unsigned int' instead of 'unsigned long' for readahead sizes. This helps reduce memory consumption on 64bit CPU when a lot of files are opened.
