The patch titled
Subject: mm: migrate: initialize err in do_migrate_pages
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-migrate-initialize-err-in-do_migrate_pages.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Jan Stancek <jstancek@redhat.com>
Subject: mm: migrate: initialize err in do_migrate_pages
After commit 236c32eb1096 ("mm: migrate: clean up migrate_prep{_local}")',
do_migrate_pages can return uninitialized variable 'err' (which is
propagated to user-space as error) when 'from' and 'to' nodesets are
identical. This can be reproduced with LTP migrate_pages01, which calls
migrate_pages() with same set for both old/new_nodes.
Add 'err' initialization back.
