Okay, I finally found it at:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shawnguo/linux.git/patch/?id=6e1b8fae892daa7ffb48570264b8e43b3f807e9a

Note that that was unnecessarily difficult - google was unable to find
it.  Ioana's patch should have been copied to linux-arm-kernel as per
MAINTAINERS, but wasn't.  Is copying the appropriate mailing lists for
a patch now optional?
