The patch titled
     Subject: mm: memcontrol: drop unnecessary lru locking from mem_cgroup_migrate()

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

Subject: mm: memcontrol: drop unnecessary lru locking from mem_cgroup_migrate()

Migration accounting in the memory controller used to have to handle both
oldpage and newpage being on the LRU already; fuse's page cache
replacement used to pass a recycled newpage that had been uncharged but
not freed and removed from the LRU, and the memcg migration code used to
uncharge oldpage to "pass on" the existing charge to newpage.

Nowadays, pages are no longer uncharged when truncated from the page
cache, but rather only at free time, so if a LRU page is recycled in page
cache replacement it'll also still be charged.  And we bail out of the
charge transfer altogether in that case.  Tell commit_charge() that we
know newpage is not on the LRU, to avoid taking the zone->lru_lock
unnecessarily from the migration path.

But also, oldpage is no longer uncharged inside migration.  We only use
oldpage for its page->mem_cgroup and page size, so we don't care about its
LRU state anymore either.  Remove any mention from the kernel doc.
