The patch titled
     Subject: mm: validate inode in mapping_set_error()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-validate-inode-in-mapping_set_error.patch

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

------------------------------------------------------
From: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org>
Subject: mm: validate inode in mapping_set_error()

The swap address_space doesn't have host. Thus, it makes kernel crash once
swap write meets error. Fix it.

Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201010000650.750063-1-minchan@kernel.org
Fixes: 735e4ae5ba28 ("vfs: track per-sb writeback errors and report them to syncfs")
