The patch titled
memcgroup: reinstate swapoff mod
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was

Subject: memcgroup: reinstate swapoff mod
From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@xxxxxxxxxxx>
This patch reinstates the "swapoff: scan ptes preemptibly" mod we started
with: in due course it should be rendered down into the earlier patches,
leaving us with a more straightforward mem_cgroup_charge mod to unuse_pte,
allocating with GFP_KERNEL while holding no spinlock and no atomic kmap.
