The patch titled
     Subject: kvm, mm: account kvm related kmem slabs to kmemcg
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     kvm-mm-account-kvm-related-kmem-slabs-to-kmemcg.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
From: Shakeel Butt <shakeelb@google.com>
Subject: kvm, mm: account kvm related kmem slabs to kmemcg

The kvm slabs can consume a significant amount of system memory and indeed
in our production environment we have observed that a lot of machines are
spending significant amount of memory that can not be left as system
memory overhead.  Also the allocations from these slabs can be triggered
directly by user space applications which has access to kvm and thus a
buggy application can leak such memory.  So, these caches should be
accounted to kmemcg.
