The patch titled
     Subject: mm: vmscan: fix shrinker_rwsem in free_shrinker_info()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-vmscan-add-per-memcg-shrinker-nr_deferred-fix.patch

This patch was dropped because it was withdrawn

From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com>
Subject: mm: vmscan: fix shrinker_rwsem in free_shrinker_info()

Lockdep warns mm/vmscan.c: suspicious rcu_dereference_protected() usage!
when free_shrinker_info() is called from mem_cgroup_css_free(): there it
is called with no locking, whereas alloc_shrinker_info() calls it with
down_write of shrinker_rwsem - which seems appropriate.  Rearrange that
so free_shrinker_info() can manage the shrinker_rwsem for itself.
