[merged mm-stable] drivers-base-memory-make-memory-block-get-put-explicit.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: drivers/base/memory: make memory block get/put explicit
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     drivers-base-memory-make-memory-block-get-put-explicit.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: drivers/base/memory: make memory block get/put explicit
Date: Tue, 12 May 2026 15:26:35 +0800

Rename the memory block lookup helper to make the acquired reference
explicit, add memory_block_put() to wrap put_device(), remove
find_memory_block(), and use memory_block_get() as the single block-id
based lookup interface.

This makes it clearer to callers that a successful lookup holds a
reference that must be dropped, reducing the chance of forgetting the
matching put and leaking the memory block device reference.
