[merged mm-stable] ipc-shm-use-vma-iterator-instead-of-linked-list.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: ipc/shm: use VMA iterator instead of linked list
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     ipc-shm-use-vma-iterator-instead-of-linked-list.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: ipc/shm: use VMA iterator instead of linked list
Date: Tue, 6 Sep 2022 19:48:58 +0000

The VMA iterator is faster than the linked llist, and it can be walked
even when VMAs are being removed from the address space, so there's no
need to keep track of 'next'.
