Subject: [folded-merged] mm-require-set_page_dirty-to-be-explicitly-wire-up-fix.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Mon, 28 Jun 2021 17:19:27 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210629001927.zgEmNYixL%akpm@linux-foundation.org> (raw)


The patch titled
     Subject: ecryptfs: add a ->set_page_dirty cludge
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-require-set_page_dirty-to-be-explicitly-wire-up-fix.patch

This patch was dropped because it was folded into mm-require-set_page_dirty-to-be-explicitly-wire-up.patch

------------------------------------------------------
From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
Subject: ecryptfs: add a ->set_page_dirty cludge

"fix" ecryptfs to work the same as before the recent change to the
behavior without a ->set_page_dirty method.
