The quilt patch titled
     Subject: compiler.h: move __is_constexpr() to compiler.h
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     compilerh-move-__is_constexpr-to-compilerh.patch

This patch was dropped because it had testing failures

Subject: compiler.h: move __is_constexpr() to compiler.h
Date: Mon, 2 Oct 2023 14:34:05 +0000

Prior to f747e6667ebb2 __is_constexpr() was in its only user minmax.h. 
That commit moved it to const.h - but that file just defined ULL(x) and
UL(x) so that constants can be defined for .S and .c files.

So apart from the word 'const' it wasn't really a good location.  Instead
move the definition to compiler.h just before the similar

  is_signed_type() and is_unsigned_type().

(Which were moved there by dcf8e5633e2e6) This may not be a good long-term
home, but the three definitions belong together.

This makes it possible to use __is_constexpr() inside is_signed_type() so
that the result is constant integer expression for pointer types.  In
particular (void *)1 isn't constant enough.
