The quilt patch titled

has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-mglru-make-lru-folio-prefetch-helper-an-inline-function.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: mm/mglru: make LRU folio prefetch helper an inline function
Date: Wed, 2 Sep 2026 07:24:19 +0800
`prefetchw_prev_lru_folio()` is currently implemented as a macro with a
potentially unused argument. This makes the helper harder to read and can
also trigger checkpatch warnings about unused macro arguments.
Make it a `static inline` function and remove the unnecessary `_field`
argument. The helper always prefetches the previous folio's `flags`, so
there is no need to make the field configurable.
