The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm/khugepaged: define KHUGEPAGED_MAX_PTES_LIMIT as HPAGE_PMD_NR - 1
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-khugepaged-define-khugepaged_max_ptes_limit-as-hpage_pmd_nr-1.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: Nico Pache <npache@redhat.com>
Subject: mm/khugepaged: define KHUGEPAGED_MAX_PTES_LIMIT as HPAGE_PMD_NR - 1
Date: Wed, 25 Mar 2026 05:40:20 -0600

The value (HPAGE_PMD_NR - 1) is used often in the khugepaged code to
signify the limit of the max_ptes_* values.  Add a define for this to
increase code readability and reuse.
