The patch titled
vmstat: small revisions to refresh_cpu_vm_stats()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
vmstat-small-revisions-to-refresh_cpu_vm_stats.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

Subject: vmstat: small revisions to refresh_cpu_vm_stats()
From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@xxxxxxx>
1. Add comments explaining how the function can be called.
2. Collect global diffs in a local array and only spill
them once into the global counters when the zone scan
is finished. This means that we only touch each global
counter once instead of each time we fold cpu counters
into zone counters.
