The quilt patch titled
     Subject: kbuild: fix -Wimplicit-function-declaration in license_is_gpl_compatible
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     kbuild-fix-wimplicit-function-declaration-in-license_is_gpl_compatible.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: kbuild: fix -Wimplicit-function-declaration in license_is_gpl_compatible
Date: Wed, 16 Nov 2022 18:26:34 +0000

Add missing <linux/string.h> include for strcmp.

Clang 16 makes -Wimplicit-function-declaration an error by default. 
Unfortunately, out of tree modules may use this in configure scripts,
which means failure might cause silent miscompilation or misconfiguration.

For more information, see LWN.net [0] or LLVM's Discourse [1], gentoo-dev@ [2],
or the (new) c-std-porting mailing list [3].
