Its filename was vmalloc-update-__vmalloc_node_noprof-documentation.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 ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Uladzislau Rezki (Sony)" Subject: vmalloc: update __vmalloc_node_noprof() documentation Date: Mon, 13 Oct 2025 19:42:22 +0200 The kernel-doc for __vmalloc_node_noprof() incorrectly states that __GFP_NOFAIL reclaim modifier is not supported. In fact it has been supported since commit 9376130c390a ("mm/vmalloc: add support for __GFP_NOFAIL"). To avoid duplication and future drift, point this helper's doc to __vmalloc_node_range_noprof() for details and the full description.
