This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-nonmm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: do_io_accounting: use sig->stats_lock
Date: Mon, 23 Oct 2023 17:34:05 +0200
Rather than lock_task_sighand(), sig->stats_lock was specifically designed
for this type of use.
This way the "if (whole)" branch runs lockless in the likely case.
