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

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm/huge_memory: separate out the folio part of zap_huge_pmd()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-huge_memory-separate-out-the-folio-part-of-zap_huge_pmd.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: separate out the folio part of zap_huge_pmd()
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2026 18:07:27 +0000

Place the part of the logic that manipulates counters and possibly updates
the accessed bit of the folio into its own function to make zap_huge_pmd()
more readable.

Also rename flush_needed to is_present as we only require a flush for
present entries.

Additionally add comments as to why we're doing what we're doing with
respect to softleaf entries.

This also lays the ground for further refactoring.
