[merged mm-stable] mm-allow-vma_start_read_locked-vma_start_read_locked_nested-to-fail.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm: allow vma_start_read_locked/vma_start_read_locked_nested to fail
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-allow-vma_start_read_locked-vma_start_read_locked_nested-to-fail.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: allow vma_start_read_locked/vma_start_read_locked_nested to fail
Date: Thu, 13 Feb 2025 14:46:44 -0800

With upcoming replacement of vm_lock with vm_refcnt, we need to handle a
possibility of vma_start_read_locked/vma_start_read_locked_nested failing
due to refcount overflow.  Prepare for such possibility by changing these
APIs and adjusting their users.
