[Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm: update outdated comments for removed scan_swap_map_slots()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-update-outdated-comments-for-removed-scan_swap_map_slots.patch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Subject: mm: update outdated comments for removed scan_swap_map_slots()
Date: Sat, 21 Mar 2026 18:58:14 +0800

The function scan_swap_map_slots() was removed in commit 0ff67f990bd4
("mm, swap: remove swap slot cache").

The three comments referencing it simply noted that ->flags can be updated
non-atomically by scan_swap_map_slots() to justify a data_race()
annotation.  Since the function no longer exists, drop the parenthetical
reference while keeping the data_race() justification intact: ->flags can
still be updated non-atomically by other paths (e.g., swapoff clearing
SWP_WRITEOK).
