[merged] mm-disable-deferred_struct_page_init-on-no_bootmem.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm]

The patch titled
     Subject: mm: disable DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT on !NO_BOOTMEM
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-disable-deferred_struct_page_init-on-no_bootmem.patch

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

From: Gavin Shan <gwshan@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Subject: mm: disable DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT on !NO_BOOTMEM

When we have !NO_BOOTMEM, the deferred page struct initialization doesn't
work well because the pages reserved in bootmem are released to the page
allocator uncoditionally.  It causes memory corruption and system crash
eventually.

As Mel suggested, the bootmem is retiring slowly.  We fix the issue by
simply hiding DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT when bootmem is enabled.
