Greg, this patch from Mel is important, but introduces a warning which is giving Tvrtko trouble - see linux-mm https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/1596edbb-02ad-6bdf-51b8-15c2d2e08b76@linux....
We already have the fix for the warning, it's making its way through the system, and is marked for stable, but it has not reached Linus's tree yet.
Please drop this 19/20 from 6.0.4, then I'll reply to this to let you know when the fix does reach Linus's tree - hopefully the two can go together in the next 6.0-stable.
I apologize for not writing yesterday: gmail had gathered together different threads with the same subject, I thought you and stable were Cc'ed on the linux-mm mail and you would immediately drop it yourself, but in fact you were not on that thread at all.
No worries, now dropped, thanks.
Thanks Greg. Linus's tree now contains my fix 5aae9265ee1a ("mm: prep_compound_tail() clear page->private") to Mel's fix 71e2d666ef85 ("mm/huge_memory: do not clobber swp_entry_t during THP split") so they can now go on together into 6.0 stable.
They would also have been good in 5.19 stable: but too late now, it's EOL.
Thanks, both now queued up for 6.0
