The patch titled
     Subject: Revert "mm: swap: check if swap backing device is congested or not"
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     revert-mm-swap-check-if-swap-backing-device-is-congested-or-not.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
From: Yang Shi <shy828301@gmail.com>
Subject: Revert "mm: swap: check if swap backing device is congested or not"

Due to the change about how block layer detects congestion the
justification of commit 8fd2e0b505d1 ("mm: swap: check if swap backing
device is congested or not") doesn't stand anymore, so the commit could be
just reverted in order to solve the race reported by commit 2efa33fc7f6e
("mm/shmem: fix shmem_swapin() race with swapoff").  The fix was reverted
by the previous patch.
