The patch titled
memcg: use [kv]zalloc[_node] rather than [kv]malloc+memset
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
memcg-use-zalloc-rather-than-mallocmemset.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: memcg: use [kv]zalloc[_node] rather than [kv]malloc+memset
From: Jesper Juhl <jj@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
In mem_cgroup_alloc() we currently do either kmalloc() or vmalloc() then
followed by memset() to zero the memory. This can be more efficiently
achieved by using kzalloc() and vzalloc(). There's also one situation
where we can use kzalloc_node() - this is what's new in this version of
the patch.
