The quilt patch titled
     Subject: selftests/mm: add merge test for partial msealed range
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was

Subject: selftests/mm: add merge test for partial msealed range
Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2026 14:50:11 +0100

Commit 2697dd8ae721 ("mm/mseal: update VMA end correctly on merge") fixed
an issue in the loop which iterates through VMAs applying mseal, which was
triggered by mseal()'ing a range of VMAs where the second was mseal()'d
and the first mergeable with it, once mseal()'d.

Add a regression test to assert that this behaviour is correct.  We place
it in the merge selftests as this is strictly an issue with merging (via a
vma_modify() invocation).

It also assert that mseal()'d ranges are correctly merged as you'd expect.

The test is implemented such that it is skipped if mseal() is not
available on the system.
