I can give you a list of patches that should correspond to the thread
name (for the most part):

fix-double-unlock_page-in-2626-rc5-mm3-kernel-bug-at-mm-filemapc-575.patch

fix_munlock-page-table-walk.patch

migration_entry_wait-fix.patch

PATCH collect lru meminfo statistics from correct offset

Mlocked field of /proc/meminfo display silly number.
because trivial mistake exist in meminfo_read_proc().

You can also look in our git repo to see the code that changed with
these patches if you cant track them down in LKML:
