The patch titled
Subject: kasan, vmalloc: drop outdated VM_KASAN comment
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@google.com>
Subject: kasan, vmalloc: drop outdated VM_KASAN comment
The comment about VM_KASAN in include/linux/vmalloc.c is outdated.
VM_KASAN is currently only used to mark vm_areas allocated for kernel
modules when CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC is disabled.
Drop the comment.

- * VM_KASAN is used slightly differently depending on CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC.
- *
- * If IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC), VM_KASAN is set on a vm_struct after
- * shadow memory has been mapped. It's used to handle allocation errors so that
- * we don't try to poison shadow on free if it was never allocated.
- *
- * Otherwise, VM_KASAN is set for kasan_module_alloc() allocations and used to
- * determine which allocations need the module shadow freed.
