The patch titled
     Subject: kexec_file: don't place kexec images on IORESOURCE_MEM_DRIVER_MANAGED
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     kexec_file-dont-place-kexec-images-on-ioresource_mem_driver_managed.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
From: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com>
Subject: kexec_file: don't place kexec images on IORESOURCE_MEM_DRIVER_MANAGED

Memory flagged with IORESOURCE_MEM_DRIVER_MANAGED is special - it won't be
part of the initial memmap of the kexec kernel and not all memory might be
accessible.  Don't place any kexec images onto it.
