[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: memcg: move preempt disable to callers of memcg_rstat_updated
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     memcg-move-preempt-disable-to-callers-of-memcg_rstat_updated.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: memcg: move preempt disable to callers of memcg_rstat_updated
Date: Wed, 14 May 2025 11:41:53 -0700

Let's move the explicit preempt disable code to the callers of
memcg_rstat_updated and also remove the memcg_stats_lock and related
functions which ensures the callers of stats update functions have
disabled preemption because now the stats update functions are explicitly
disabling preemption.
