The patch titled
     Subject: mm/memory-failure.c: remove obsolete comment
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-hwpoison-remove-obsolete-comment.patch

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

From: Naoya Horiguchi <naoya.horiguchi@nec.com>
Subject: mm/memory-failure.c: remove obsolete comment

With the introduction of mf_mutex, most of memory error handling process
is mutually exclusive, so the in-line comment about subtlety about
double-checking PageHWPoison is no more correct.  So remove it.
