This patch depends on the following one:

  commit 81d0fa623c5b8dbd5279d9713094b0f9b0a00fb4
  Author: Peter Feiner <pfeiner@xxxxxxxxxx>
  Date:   Thu Oct 9 15:28:32 2014 -0700
  
      mm: softdirty: unmapped addresses between VMAs are clean

Commit 81d0fa623c5b is cleanly applicable onto v3.14.34, so we can backport
05fbf357d941 with this patch.

As for the change in 81d0fa623c5b, I think the fix looks clear and simple
(contained in a single function,) so it's worth backporting as a stable fix too.
Or is there any reason that this 81d0fa623c5b was not tagged for stable trees?
Any idea, Peter?

Thanks,
Naoya Horiguchi
