The patch titled
Subject: mm: numa: do not clear PTE for pte_numa update
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-numa-do-not-clear-pte-for-pte_numa-update.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Mel Gorman <mgorman@xxxxxxx>
Subject: mm: numa: do not clear PTE for pte_numa update
The TLB must be flushed if the PTE is updated but change_pte_range is
clearing the PTE while marking PTEs pte_numa without necessarily flushing
the TLB if it reinserts the same entry. Without the flush, it's
conceivable that two processors have different TLBs for the same virtual
address and at the very least it would generate spurious faults. This
patch only unmaps the pages in change_pte_range for a full protection
change.
[riel@xxxxxxxxxx: write pte_numa pte back to the page tables]
