has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was

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/khugepaged: fix comment for default scan sleep duration
Date: Wed, 15 Oct 2025 17:29:57 +0800
The comment for khugepaged_scan_sleep_millisecs incorrectly states the
default scan period is 30 seconds. The actual default value in the code
is 10000ms (10 seconds).
This patch corrects the comment to match the code, preventing potential
confusion. The incorrect comment has existed since the feature was first
introduced. While at it, replace the magic value 512 by HPAGE_PMD_NR and
use 'ptes'.
