[merged mm-stable] ptdesc-convert-__page_flags-to-pt_flags.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: ptdesc: convert __page_flags to pt_flags
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     ptdesc-convert-__page_flags-to-pt_flags.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: ptdesc: convert __page_flags to pt_flags
Date: Mon, 8 Sep 2025 18:11:00 +0100

Patch series "Some ptdesc cleanups".

The first two patches here are preparation for splitting struct ptdesc
from struct page and struct folio.  I think their only dependency is on
the memdesc_flags_t patches from August which is in mm-new.  The third
patch is just something I noticed while working on the code.


This patch (of 3):

Use the new memdesc_flags_t type to show that these are the same bits as
page/folio/slab and thesefore have the zone/node/section information in
them.  Remove a use of ptdesc_folio() by converting
pagetable_is_reserved() to use test_bit() directly.
