[withdrawn] mm-util-account_locked_vm-does-not-hold-mmap_lock.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm]

The patch titled
     Subject: mm, util: account_locked_vm() does not hold mmap_lock
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-util-account_locked_vm-does-not-hold-mmap_lock.patch

This patch was dropped because it was withdrawn

------------------------------------------------------
From: Pengfei Li <fly@kernel.page>
Subject: mm, util: account_locked_vm() does not hold mmap_lock

Since mm->locked_vm is already an atomic counter, account_locked_vm()
does not need to hold mmap_lock.
