The quilt patch titled
     Subject: zram: clear IDLE flag in mark_idle()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     zram-clear-idle-flag-in-mark_idle.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: zram: clear IDLE flag in mark_idle()
Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2024 00:36:15 +0900

If entry does not fulfill current mark_idle() parameters, e.g.  cutoff
time, then we should clear its ZRAM_IDLE from previous mark_idle()
invocations.

Consider the following case:
- mark_idle() cutoff time 8h
- mark_idle() cutoff time 4h
- writeback() idle - will writeback entries with cutoff time 8h,
  while it should only pick entries with cutoff time 4h

The bug was reported by Shin Kawamura.

I think this also needs to be Cc'd to stable.
