The patch titled
     mm: vmalloc failure flush fix
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-vmalloc-failure-flush-fix.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: mm: vmalloc failure flush fix
From: Nick Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxx>

An initial vmalloc failure should start off a synchronous flush of lazy
areas, in case someone is in progress flushing them already, which could
cause us to return an allocation failure even if there is plenty of KVA
free.
