The patch titled
     Subject: mm, meminit: ensure node is online before checking whether pages are uninitialised
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-meminit-ensure-node-is-online-before-checking-whether-pages-are-uninitialised.patch

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

Subject: mm, meminit: ensure node is online before checking whether pages are uninitialised

early_page_uninitialised looks up an arbitrary PFN.  While a machine
without node 0 will boot with "mm, page_alloc: Always return a valid node
from early_pfn_to_nid", it works because it assumes that nodes are always
in PFN order.  This is not guaranteed so this patch adds robustness by
always checking if the node being checked is online.
