The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm/gup: remove locked being NULL from faultin_vma_page_range()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-gup-remove-locked-being-null-from-faultin_vma_page_range.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

The only caller of this function always passes in a non-NULL locked, so
just remove this obsolete comment.
