The quilt patch titled
     Subject: ocfs2: use flexible array in 'struct ocfs2_recovery_map'
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     ocfs2-use-flexible-array-in-struct-ocfs2_recovery_map.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-nonmm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: ocfs2: use flexible array in 'struct ocfs2_recovery_map'
Date: Sun, 16 Jul 2023 20:48:56 +0200

Turn 'rm_entries' in 'struct ocfs2_recovery_map' into a flexible array.

The advantages are:
   - save the size of a pointer when the new undo structure is allocated
   - avoid some always ugly pointer arithmetic to get the address of
    'rm_entries'
   - avoid an indirection when the array is accessed

While at it, use struct_size() to compute the size of the new undo
structure.
