The patch titled
     Subject: mm/kconfig: drop redundant dependency wrappers
has been added to the -mm mm-new branch.  Its filename is
     mm-kconfig-drop-redundant-dependency-wrappers.patch

This patch will shortly appear at
     https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-kconfig-drop-redundant-dependency-wrappers.patch

This patch will later appear in the mm-new branch at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Note, mm-new is a provisional staging ground for work-in-progress
patches, and acceptance into mm-new is a notification for others take
notice and to finish up reviews.  Please do not hesitate to respond to
review feedback and post updated versions to replace or incrementally
fixup patches in mm-new.

The mm-new branch of mm.git is not included in linux-next

If a few days of testing in mm-new is successful, the patch will me moved
into mm.git's mm-unstable branch, which is included in linux-next

Subject: mm/kconfig: drop redundant dependency wrappers
Date: Sun, 12 Jul 2026 17:33:26 +0800

Some mm Kconfig entries repeat dependencies that are already expressed by
their surrounding blocks or menus.

The zsmalloc allocator options menu already depends on ZSMALLOC, so the
outer if ZSMALLOC block does not add any extra constraint. 
MEMORY_HOTREMOVE and MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY are both inside the if
MEMORY_HOTPLUG block, so their local depends on MEMORY_HOTPLUG entries are
redundant.

PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP is the only entry under if USERFAULTFD.  Move the
USERFAULTFD dependency into the symbol itself and combine it with the
architecture support dependency.

This keeps the same visibility and defaults while avoiding duplicate
dependency expressions.
