The patch titled Subject: mm/memblock: reduce overhead in binary search has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-memblock-reduce-overhead-in-binary-search.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Wanpeng Li <liwanp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/memblock: reduce overhead in binary search When checking the indicated address belongs to the memory or reserved region, the memory or reserved regions are checked one by one through binary search, which would be a little time consuming. If the indicated address isn't in memory region, then we needn't do the time-sonsuming search. The patch adds more check on the indicated address for that purpose.
