The quilt patch titled
Subject: mm, swap: return early from swap_extend_table_try_free() on first non-zero entry
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-swap-return-early-from-swap_extend_table_try_free-on-first-non-zero-entry.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, swap: return early from swap_extend_table_try_free() on first non-zero entry
Date: Mon, 7 Sep 2026 17:13:55 +0800
Return immediately when the first non-zero swap count is found as any
non-zero swap count prevents freeing extend_table and further iteration is
pointless.
