Subject: [merged mm-stable] mm-remove-pagewriteback.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Thu, 08 Oct 2026 22:56:36 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261009055636.D20BC1F00898@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)


The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm: remove PageWriteback
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-remove-pagewriteback.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: remove PageWriteback
Date: Sat, 05 Sep 2026 15:08:30 -0400

The last caller of PageWriteback() was removed in commit f75987e543c2
("libceph: remove pinning assertion in ceph_msg_data_iter_next()").  This
flag is now only used on folios, so we can remove all the page accessors. 
folio_test_clear_writeback() is not used, so don't add
FOLIO_TEST_CLEAR_FLAG() for it.
