[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: alloc_tag: fix set_codetag_empty() when !CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     alloc_tag-fix-set_codetag_empty-when-config_mem_alloc_profiling_debug.patch

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

Subject: alloc_tag: fix set_codetag_empty() when !CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG
Date: Fri, 29 Nov 2024 16:14:23 -0800

It was recently noticed that set_codetag_empty() might be used not only to
mark NULL alloctag references as empty to avoid warnings but also to reset
valid tags (in clear_page_tag_ref()).  Since set_codetag_empty() is
defined as NOOP for CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG=n, such use of
set_codetag_empty() leads to subtle bugs.  Fix set_codetag_empty() for
CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG=n to reset the tag reference.
