The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm/gup: fix memfd_pin_folios hugetlb page allocation
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-gup-fix-memfd_pin_folios-hugetlb-page-allocation.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: mm/gup: fix memfd_pin_folios hugetlb page allocation
Date: Tue, 3 Sep 2024 07:25:20 -0700

When memfd_pin_folios -> memfd_alloc_folio creates a hugetlb page, the
index is wrong.  The subsequent call to filemap_get_folios_contig thus
cannot find it, and fails, and memfd_pin_folios loops forever.  To fix,
adjust the index for the huge_page_order.

memfd_alloc_folio also forgets to unlock the folio, so the next touch of
the page calls hugetlb_fault which blocks forever trying to take the lock.
Unlock it.
