The patch titled Subject: thp: implement splitting pmd for huge zero page has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was thp-implement-splitting-pmd-for-huge-zero-page.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: thp: implement splitting pmd for huge zero page We can't split huge zero page itself (and it's bug if we try), but we can split the pmd which points to it. On splitting the pmd we create a table with all ptes set to normal zero page. [akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: fix build error] Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
