Its filename was mm-avoid-use-of-vma_special_flags-in-migrate_vma_setup.patch This patch was dropped because an updated version will be issued ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Lorenzo Stoakes (ARM)" Subject: mm: avoid use of VMA_SPECIAL_FLAGS in migrate_vma_setup() Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2026 17:22:45 +0100 Now we have the expressive vma_is_kernel_owned() and vma_is_fixed_mapping() predicates, use them to determine whether to proceed with migration. This drops the VMA_IO_BIT test, which is safe as only kernel-owned mappings may set it. hugetlb mappings remain excluded, as they are fixed mappings. No functional change intended.
