[PATCH 1/1] dibs: Re-apply lost patch

From: Steffen Jaeckel <hidden>
Date: 2026-01-27 16:16:23
Also in: linux-s390, lkml
Subsystem: dibs (direct internal buffer sharing), the rest · Maintainers: Alexandra Winter, Linus Torvalds

While merging the dibs layer, Matt [1] noticed that the changes which were
done in [2] conflicted and were missing. He subsequently fixed this in the
merge commit of his own tree, but the changes never made it upstream.

This commit re-introduces the changes.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/74368a5c-48ac-4f8e-a198-40ec1ed3cf5f@kernel.org/ (local)
[2] a35c04de2565d ("net/smc: fix warning in smc_rx_splice() when calling get_page()")

Fixes: cc21191b584c ("dibs: Move data path to dibs layer")
