The patch titled
Subject: ipc: shm: shm_fallocate use -ENOTSUPP
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
ipc-shm-restore-madv_remove-functionality-on-shared-memory-segments-fix.patch
This patch was dropped because it was folded into ipc-shm-restore-madv_remove-functionality-on-shared-memory-segments.patch
The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: ipc: shm: shm_fallocate use -ENOTSUPP
When underlying filesystem (i.e. hugetlbfs) does not support fallocate(),
let shm_fallocate() fail with -EOPNOTSUPP rather than -EINVAL: so that
madvise(,,MADV_REMOVE) gives the same error as it does wherever else
fallocate() is unsupported. vmtruncate_range() gave -ENOSYS in this case,
but that was not quite right.
