The patch titled
quicklist: Set tlb->need_flush if pages are remaining in quicklist 0
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
quicklist-set-tlb-need_flush-if-pages-are-remaining-in-quicklist-0.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: quicklist: Set tlb->need_flush if pages are remaining in quicklist 0
From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@xxxxxxx>
This ensures that the quicklists are drained. Otherwise draining may only
occur when the processor reaches an idle state.
Fixes fatal leakage of pgd_t's on 2.6.22 and later.
