Subject: [merged mm-stable] mm-dont-special-case-mmu-for-is_zero_pfn-and-my_zero_pfn.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2026 14:42:47 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260324214247.D085EC19424@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: mm: don't special case !MMU for is_zero_pfn() and my_zero_pfn()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-dont-special-case-mmu-for-is_zero_pfn-and-my_zero_pfn.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: don't special case !MMU for is_zero_pfn() and my_zero_pfn()
Date: Wed, 11 Feb 2026 12:31:38 +0200
Patch series "arch, mm: consolidate empty_zero_page", v3.
These patches cleanup handling of ZERO_PAGE() and zero_pfn.
This patch (of 4):
nommu architectures have empty_zero_page and define ZERO_PAGE() and
although they don't really use it to populate page tables, there is no
reason to hardwire !MMU implementation of is_zero_pfn() and my_zero_pfn()
to 0.
Drop #ifdef CONFIG_MMU around implementations of is_zero_pfn() and
my_zero_pfn() and remove !MMU version.
While on it, make zero_pfn __ro_after_init.
