The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm/damon/lru_sort: avoid divide-by-zero in hot threshold calculation
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-damon-lru_sort-avoid-divide-by-zero-in-hot-threshold-calculation.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/damon/lru_sort: avoid divide-by-zero in hot threshold calculation
Date: Thu, 19 Oct 2023 19:49:23 +0000

When calculating the hotness threshold for lru_prio scheme of
DAMON_LRU_SORT, the module divides some values by the maximum nr_accesses.
However, due to the type of the related variables, simple division-based
calculation of the divisor can return zero.  As a result, divide-by-zero
is possible.  Fix it by using damon_max_nr_accesses(), which handles the
case.
