Subject: [merged mm-hotfixes-stable] mm-huge_memory-update-file-pmd-counter-before-folio_put.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Sun, 31 May 2026 21:51:03 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260601045104.197181F00898@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)


The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm/huge_memory: update file PMD counter before folio_put()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-huge_memory-update-file-pmd-counter-before-folio_put.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/huge_memory: update file PMD counter before folio_put()
Date: Tue, 26 May 2026 18:13:37 +0800

__split_huge_pmd_locked() updates the file/shmem RSS counter after
dropping the PMD mapping's folio reference.  If folio_put() drops the last
reference, mm_counter_file() can later read freed folio state via
folio_test_swapbacked().

Move the counter update before folio_put().
