has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was

of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: selftests/mm: drop unnecessary sudo usage
Date: Tue, 11 Mar 2025 13:18:20 +0000

This script must be run as root anyway (see all the writing to privileged
files in /proc etc).

Remove the unnecessary use of sudo to avoid breaking on single-user
systems that don't have sudo.  This also avoids confusing readers.
