The patch titled
     Subject: ksm: use GET_KSM_PAGE_NOLOCK to get ksm page in remove_rmap_item_from_tree()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     ksm-use-get_ksm_page_nolock-to-get-ksm-page-in-remove_rmap_item_from_tree.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: Miaohe Lin <linmiaohe@huawei.com>
Subject: ksm: use GET_KSM_PAGE_NOLOCK to get ksm page in remove_rmap_item_from_tree()

It's unnecessary to lock the page when get ksm page if we're going to
remove the rmap item as page migration is irrelevant in this case.  Use
GET_KSM_PAGE_NOLOCK instead to save some page lock cycles.
