The quilt patch titled
     Subject: kho: warn if KHO is disabled due to an error
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     kho-warn-if-kho-is-disabled-due-to-an-error.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: kho: warn if KHO is disabled due to an error
Date: Fri, 8 Aug 2025 20:18:04 +0000

During boot scratch area is allocated based on command line parameters or
auto calculated.  However, scratch area may fail to allocate, and in that
case KHO is disabled.  Currently, no warning is printed that KHO is
disabled, which makes it confusing for the end user to figure out why KHO
is not available.  Add the missing warning message.
