The quilt patch titled

has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-huge_memory-drop-the-redundant-mapping-argument-of-__split_frozen_folio.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/huge_memory: drop the redundant mapping argument of __split_frozen_folio
Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2026 23:32:48 +0200
The mapping parameter only served as a non-NULL check to detect whether
page cache entries need updating. The xa_state pointer conveys exactly
the same information: the anon split helper passes NULL and the file split
helper passes &xas, which is non-NULL iff the folio is in the page cache.
Use the xas pointer instead and drop the parameter, along with its
kerneldoc entry.
