The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: free old damon_sysfs_scheme_filter->memcg_path on write
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch

Subject: mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: free old damon_sysfs_scheme_filter->memcg_path on write
Date: Thu, 19 Jun 2025 11:36:07 -0700

memcg_path_store() assigns a newly allocated memory buffer to
filter->memcg_path, without deallocating the previously allocated and
assigned memory buffer.  As a result, users can leak kernel memory by
continuously writing a data to memcg_path DAMOS sysfs file.  Fix the leak
by deallocating the previously set memory buffer.
