Subject: [PATCH 2/2] mm: move alloc tag to mm
Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2026 11:48:57 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260625184857.2193482-3-surenb@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260625184857.2193482-1-surenb@google.com>
From: Lorenzo Stoakes <ljs@kernel.org>
The alloc tagging work is really mm-specific, so move alloc_tag.c to mm/
and additionally update the MAINTAINERS entry to place it within memory
management and port over the Kconfig and Makefile code to mm.
