The quilt patch titled Subject: mm/mglru: skip special VMAs in lru_gen_look_around() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-mglru-skip-special-vmas-in-lru_gen_look_around.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
------------------------------------------------------ From: Yu Zhao yuzhao@google.com Subject: mm/mglru: skip special VMAs in lru_gen_look_around() Date: Fri, 22 Dec 2023 21:56:47 -0700
Special VMAs like VM_PFNMAP can contain anon pages from COW. There isn't much profit in doing lookaround on them. Besides, they can trigger the pte_special() warning in get_pte_pfn().
Skip them in lru_gen_look_around().
