[merged mm-stable] mm-memory-failure-not-select-memory_isolation.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm/memory-failure: don't select MEMORY_ISOLATION
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-memory-failure-not-select-memory_isolation.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/memory-failure: don't select MEMORY_ISOLATION
Date: Mon, 22 Sep 2025 22:36:18 +0800

We added that "select MEMORY_ISOLATION" in commit ee6f509c3274 ("mm:
factor out memory isolate functions").  However, in commit add05cecef80
("mm: soft-offline: don't free target page in successful page migration")
we remove the need for it, where we removed the calls to
set_migratetype_isolate() etc.

What CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE soft-offline support wants is migrate_pages()
support.  But that comes with CONFIG_MIGRATION.  And
isolate_folio_to_list() has nothing to do with CONFIG_MEMORY_ISOLATION.

Therefore, we can remove "select MEMORY_ISOLATION" of MEMORY_FAILURE.
