The quilt patch titled

has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-on-remap-assert-that-input-range-within-the-proposed-vma.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: "Lorenzo Stoakes (Oracle)" <ljs@kernel.org>
Subject: mm: on remap assert that input range within the proposed VMA
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2026 22:39:47 +0000
Now we have range_in_vma_desc(), update remap_pfn_range_prepare() to check
whether the input range in contained within the specified VMA, so we can
fail at prepare time if an invalid range is specified.
This covers the I/O remap mmap actions also which ultimately call into
this function, and other mmap action types either already span the full
VMA or check this already.
