The quilt patch titled
Subject: riscv/mm: fix hotplug page-table destructor handling
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
riscv-mm-fix-hotplug-page-table-destructor-handling.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: riscv/mm: fix hotplug page-table destructor handling
Date: Fri, 23 Oct 2026 14:34:26 +0800
RISC-V uses the same memory-hotplug teardown code for linear-map and
vmemmap page tables. Late linear-map allocations run page-table
constructors, while vmemmap and early allocations may not.
free_pte_table() unconditionally calls pagetable_dtor(), corrupting
NR_PAGETABLE accounting for constructor-free tables. free_pmd_table()
avoids that for vmemmap using is_vmemmap, but mapping type is not a
reliable proxy for constructor state. In particular, it becomes invalid
once runtime vmemmap tables use the normal pgalloc helpers.
Introduce free_pgtable_page() to select free_reserved_page() for reserved
pages and pagetable_free() otherwise. The latter runs the destructor only
when PageTable() is set, handling both constructor-backed and
constructor-free tables.
