Its filename was mm-avoid-use-of-vma_special_flags-in-migrate_vma_setup.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 ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Lorenzo Stoakes (ARM)" Subject: mm: avoid use of VMA_SPECIAL_FLAGS in migrate_vma_setup() Date: Tue, 13 Oct 2026 16:05:16 +0100 Now we have the expressive vma_is_mm_backed() predicate, use it to determine whether to proceed with migration. This drops the VMA_IO_BIT test, which is safe as mm-managed mappings may not set it. hugetlb mappings are mm-backed but remain explicitly excluded, as the migrate_vma page walk has no hugetlb support. No functional change intended.
