[Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm: optimize CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK member placement in vm_area_struct
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-optimize-config_per_vma_lock-member-placement-in-vm_area_struct.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: optimize CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK member placement in vm_area_struct
Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2024 15:35:48 +0100

Currently, we end up wasting some memory in each vm_area_struct. Pahole
states that:
	[...]
	int                        vm_lock_seq;          /*    40     4 */

	/* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

	struct vma_lock *          vm_lock;              /*    48     8 */
	bool                       detached;             /*    56     1 */

	/* XXX 7 bytes hole, try to pack */
	[...]

Let's reduce the holes and memory wastage by moving the bool:
	[...]
	bool                       detached;             /*    40     1 */

	/* XXX 3 bytes hole, try to pack */

	int                        vm_lock_seq;          /*    44     4 */
	struct vma_lock *          vm_lock;              /*    48     8 */
	[...]

Effectively shrinking the vm_area_struct with CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK by
8 byte.

Likely, we could place "detached" in the lowest bit of vm_lock, but at
least on 64bit that won't really make a difference, so keep it simple.
