The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm: thp: remove redundant pgtable check in set_huge_zero_page()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-thp-remove-redundant-pgtable-check-in-set_huge_zero_page.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: mm: thp: remove redundant pgtable check in set_huge_zero_page()
Date: Thu, 18 Aug 2022 16:27:48 +0800

When the pgtable is NULL in the set_huge_zero_page(), we should not
increment the count of PTE page table pages by calling mm_inc_nr_ptes(). 
Otherwise we may receive the following warning when the mm exits:

	BUG: non-zero pgtables_bytes on freeing mm

Now we can't observe the above warning since only
do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page() invokes set_huge_zero_page() and the pgtable
can not be NULL.

Therefore, instead of moving mm_inc_nr_ptes() to the non-NULL branch of
pgtable, it is better to remove the redundant pgtable check directly.
