The patch titled Subject: mm/memory-failure.c: don't access uninitialized memmaps in memory_failure() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-memory-failurec-dont-access-uninitialized-memmaps-in-memory_failure.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: David Hildenbrand <david@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/memory-failure.c: don't access uninitialized memmaps in memory_failure() We should check for pfn_to_online_page() to not access uninitialized memmaps. Reshuffle the code so we don't have to duplicate the error message.
