     memcgroup: tidy up mem_cgroup_charge_common
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     memcgroup-tidy-up-mem_cgroup_charge_common.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: memcgroup: tidy up mem_cgroup_charge_common
From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Tidy up mem_cgroup_charge_common before extending it.  Adjust some comments,
but mainly clean up its loop: I've an aversion to loops full of continues,
then a break or a goto at the bottom.  And the is_atomic test should be on the
__GFP_WAIT bit, not GFP_ATOMIC bits.
