The quilt patch titled
     Subject: fs: remove nr_thps from struct address_space
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     fs-remove-nr_thps-from-struct-address_space.patch

This patch was dropped because an updated version will be issued

Subject: fs: remove nr_thps from struct address_space
Date: Thu, 23 Apr 2026 22:49:10 -0400

filemap_nr_thps*() are removed, the related field, address_space->nr_thps,
is no longer needed.  Remove it.  This shrinks struct address_space by 8
bytes on 64-bit systems which may increase the number of inodes we can
cache.
