[merged mm-stable] powerpc-mm-call-ctor-dtor-for-kernel-ptes.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: powerpc: mm: call ctor/dtor for kernel PTEs
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     powerpc-mm-call-ctor-dtor-for-kernel-ptes.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: powerpc: mm: call ctor/dtor for kernel PTEs
Date: Tue, 8 Apr 2025 10:52:15 +0100

The generic implementation of pte_{alloc_one,free}_kernel now calls the
[cd]tor, without initialising the ptlock needlessly as
pagetable_pte_ctor() skips it for init_mm.

On powerpc, all functions related to PTE allocation are implemented by
common helpers, which are passed a boolean to differentiate user from
kernel pgtables.  This patch aligns the powerpc implementation with the
generic one by calling pagetable_pte_[cd]tor() unconditionally in those
helpers.
