has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-zswap-add-the-flag-can_sleep_mapped-fix-3.patch
This patch was dropped because it was folded into mm-zswap-add-the-flag-can_sleep_mapped.patch

Subject: mm/zswap: fix potential uninitialized pointer read on tmp
In the case where zpool_can_sleep_mapped(pool) returns 0 then tmp is not
allocated and tmp is then an uninitialized pointer. Later if entry is
null, tmp is freed, hence free'ing an uninitialized pointer. Fix this by
ensuring tmp is initialized to NULL.
