The quilt patch titled Subject: mm: vmscan: hold write lock to reparent shrinker nr_deferred has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-vmscan-hold-write-lock-to-reparent-shrinker-nr_deferred.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: Qi Zheng Subject: mm: vmscan: hold write lock to reparent shrinker nr_deferred Date: Mon, 13 Mar 2023 19:28:17 +0800 For now, reparent_shrinker_deferred() is the only holder of read lock of shrinker_rwsem. And it already holds the global cgroup_mutex, so it will not be called in parallel. Therefore, in order to convert shrinker_rwsem to shrinker_mutex later, here we change to hold the write lock of shrinker_rwsem to reparent.
