The quilt patch titled

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

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: annotate data race in update_hiwater_rss
Date: Mon, 31 Mar 2025 21:57:05 +0200
mm_struct.hiwater_rss can be accessed concurrently without proper
synchronization as reported by KCSAN.
This data race is benign as it only affects accounting information.
Annotate it with data_race() to make KCSAN happy.
