     Subject: mm/mremap: simplify vma expansion again
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was

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/mremap: simplify vma expansion again
Date: Thu, 9 Mar 2023 12:12:58 +0100

This effectively reverts d014cd7c1c35 ("mm, mremap: fix mremap() expanding
for vma's with vm_ops->close()").  After the recent changes, vma_merge()
is able to handle the expansion properly even when the vma being expanded
has a vm_ops->close operation, so we don't need to special case it
anymore.
