The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm/gup: remove pXX_devmap usage from get_user_pages()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-gup-remove-pxx_devmap-usage-from-get_user_pages.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/gup: remove pXX_devmap usage from get_user_pages()
Date: Thu, 19 Jun 2025 18:57:57 +1000

GUP uses pXX_devmap() calls to see if it needs to a get a reference on the
associated pgmap data structure to ensure the pages won't go away. 
However it's a driver responsibility to ensure that if pages are mapped
(ie.  discoverable by GUP) that they are not offlined or removed from the
memmap so there is no need to hold a reference on the pgmap data structure
to ensure this.

Furthermore mappings with PFN_DEV are no longer created, hence this
effectively dead code anyway so can be removed.
