The patch titled
     ksm: fix mlockfreed to munlocked
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     ksm-fix-mlockfreed-to-munlocked.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: ksm: fix mlockfreed to munlocked
From: Hugh Dickins <hugh.dickins@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

When KSM merges an mlocked page, it has been forgetting to munlock it:
that's been left to free_page_mlock(), which reports it in /proc/vmstat as
unevictable_pgs_mlockfreed instead of unevictable_pgs_munlocked (and
whinges "Page flag mlocked set for process" in mmotm, whereas mainline is
silently forgiving).  Call munlock_vma_page() to fix that.
