Message-ID: <20230416174200.0E00DC433D2@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: mm/huge_memory.c: warn with pr_warn_ratelimited instead of VM_WARN_ON_ONCE_FOLIO
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-huge_memoryc-warn-with-pr_warn_ratelimited-instead-of-vm_warn_on_once_folio.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

split_huge_page_to_list() WARNs when called for huge zero pages, which
sounds to me too harsh because it does not imply a kernel bug, but just
notifies the event to admins. On the other hand, this is considered as
critical by syzkaller and makes its testing less efficient, which seems to
me harmful.
So replace the VM_WARN_ON_ONCE_FOLIO with pr_warn_ratelimited.
