[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm, oom: do not check 0 mask in out_of_memory()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-oom-do-not-check-0-mask-in-out_of_memory.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: mm, oom: do not check 0 mask in out_of_memory()
Date: Mon, 8 May 2023 07:35:38 +0000

Since commit 60e2793d440a ("mm, oom: do not trigger out_of_memory from the
#PF"), no user sets gfp_mask to 0.  Remove the 0 mask check and update the
comments.
