[merged mm-stable] mm-fix-deferred-split-queue-races-during-migration.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm: fix deferred split queue races during migration
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-fix-deferred-split-queue-races-during-migration.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: Lance Yang <lance.yang@linux.dev>
Subject: mm: fix deferred split queue races during migration
Date: Wed, 1 Apr 2026 21:10:32 +0800

migrate_folio_move() records the deferred split queue state from src and
replays it on dst.  Replaying it after remove_migration_ptes(src, dst, 0)
makes dst visible before it is requeued, so a concurrent rmap-removal path
can mark dst partially mapped and trip the WARN in deferred_split_folio().

Move the requeue before remove_migration_ptes() so dst is back on the
deferred split queue before it becomes visible again.

Because migration still holds dst locked at that point, teach
deferred_split_scan() to requeue a folio when folio_trylock() fails. 
Otherwise a fully mapped underused folio can be dequeued by the shrinker
and silently lost from split_queue.
