Subject: [merged mm-stable] mm-memory_failure-generalize-extra_pins-handling-to-all-mf_delayed-cases.patch removed from -mm tree

Message-ID: <20261013043305.540631F000FF@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: mm: memory_failure: Generalize extra_pins handling to all MF_DELAYED cases
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-memory_failure-generalize-extra_pins-handling-to-all-mf_delayed-cases.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: memory_failure: Generalize extra_pins handling to all MF_DELAYED cases
Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2026 20:43:50 +0000
Generalize extra_pins handling to all MF_DELAYED cases not only
shmem_mapping.
If MF_DELAYED is returned, the filemap continues to hold refcounts on the
folio. Hence, take that into account when checking for extra refcounts.
As clarified in an earlier patch, a return value of MF_DELAYED implies
that the page still has elevated refcounts. Hence, set extra_pins to true
if the return value is MF_DELAYED. This is aligned with the
implementation in me_swapcache_dirty(), where, if a folio is still in the
swap cache, ret is set to MF_DELAYED and extra_pins is set to true.
