The patch titled
     Subject: mm: introduce kmemleak_update_trace()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-introduce-kmemleak_update_trace.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
From: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
Subject: mm: introduce kmemleak_update_trace()

The memory allocation stack trace is not always useful for debugging a
memory leak (e.g.  radix_tree_preload).  This function, when called,
updates the stack trace for an already allocated object.
