The quilt patch titled Subject: mm, compaction: fast_find_migrateblock() should return pfn in the target zone has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-compaction-fast_find_migrateblock-should-return-pfn-in-the-target-zone.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch\nof git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
------------------------------------------------------ From: Rei Yamamoto yamamoto.rei@jp.fujitsu.com Subject: mm, compaction: fast_find_migrateblock() should return pfn in the target zone
At present, pages not in the target zone are added to cc->migratepages list in isolate_migratepages_block(). As a result, pages may migrate between nodes unintentionally.
This would be a serious problem for older kernels without commit a984226f457f849e ("mm: memcontrol: remove the pgdata parameter of mem_cgroup_page_lruvec"), because it can corrupt the lru list by handling pages in list without holding proper lru_lock.
Avoid returning a pfn outside the target zone in the case that it is not aligned with a pageblock boundary. Otherwise isolate_migratepages_block() will handle pages not in the target zone.
