The quilt patch titled
     Subject: buffer: use bdev_getblk() to avoid memory reclaim in readahead path
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     buffer-use-bdev_getblk-to-avoid-memory-reclaim-in-readahead-path.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: buffer: use bdev_getblk() to avoid memory reclaim in readahead path

__getblk() adds __GFP_NOFAIL, which is unnecessary for readahead; we're
quite comfortable with the possibility that we may not get a bh back. 
Switch to bdev_getblk() which does not include __GFP_NOFAIL.
