The patch titled Subject: mm: cma: remove watermark hacks has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-cma-remove-watermark-hacks.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: cma: remove watermark hacks Commits 2139cbe627b89 ("cma: fix counting of isolated pages") and d95ea5d18e69951 ("cma: fix watermark checking") introduced a reliable method of free page accounting when memory is being allocated from CMA regions, so the workaround introduced earlier by commit 49f223a9cd96c72 ("mm: trigger page reclaim in alloc_contig_range() to stabilise watermarks") can be finally removed.
