[merged mm-stable] tools-testing-vma-cover-hole-filling-through-__mmap_region.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: tools/testing/vma: cover hole filling through __mmap_region()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     tools-testing-vma-cover-hole-filling-through-__mmap_region.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: tools/testing/vma: cover hole filling through __mmap_region()
Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2026 17:55:15 +0800

The mmap tests extend existing mappings one neighbor at a time, while
merge tests construct merge state directly.  Neither exercises filling a
hole between compatible mappings through the mmap setup and completion
path.

Fill a gap through __mmap_region() and require both neighbors to merge
into one VMA.  Repeat with only the new mapping's execute permission set
and require three separate VMAs.  Check boundaries, permissions, page
offsets, map_count and cleanup.
