The quilt patch titled Subject: mm/kmemleak: prevent soft lockup in kmemleak_scan()'s object iteration loops has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-kmemleak-prevent-soft-lockup-in-kmemleak_scans-object-iteration-loops.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: Waiman Long longman@redhat.com Subject: mm/kmemleak: prevent soft lockup in kmemleak_scan()'s object iteration loops Date: Thu, 20 Oct 2022 13:56:19 -0400

Commit 6edda04ccc7c ("mm/kmemleak: prevent soft lockup in first object iteration loop of kmemleak_scan()") adds cond_resched() in the first object iteration loop of kmemleak_scan(). However, it turns that the 2nd objection iteration loop can still cause soft lockup to happen in some cases. So add a cond_resched() call in the 2nd and 3rd loops as well to prevent that and for completeness.
