The quilt patch titled
     Subject: bitops: use try_cmpxchg in set_mask_bits and bit_clear_unless
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     bitops-use-try_cmpxchg-in-set_mask_bits-and-bit_clear_unless.patch

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

Subject: bitops: use try_cmpxchg in set_mask_bits and bit_clear_unless
Date: Mon, 22 Aug 2022 16:38:51 +0200

Use try_cmpxchg instead of cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old in
set_mask_bits and bit_clear_unless.  x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns
success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg (and
related move instruction in front of cmpxchg).

Also, try_cmpxchg implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when cmpxchg
fails, enabling further code simplifications.
