The patch titled Subject: mm/hugetlb.c: teach follow_hugetlb_page() to handle FOLL_NOWAIT has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-hugetlbc-teach-follow_hugetlb_page-to-handle-foll_nowait.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------ From: Andrea Arcangeli aarcange@redhat.com Subject: mm/hugetlb.c: teach follow_hugetlb_page() to handle FOLL_NOWAIT

hugetlb needs the same fix as faultin_nopage (which was applied in 96312e61282ae ("mm/gup.c: teach get_user_pages_unlocked to handle FOLL_NOWAIT")) or KVM hangs because it thinks the mmap_sem was already released by hugetlb_fault() if it returned VM_FAULT_RETRY, but it wasn't in the FOLL_NOWAIT case.
