[to-be-updated] kfifo-introduce-and-use-kfifo_skip_count.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: kfifo: introduce and use kfifo_skip_count()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     kfifo-introduce-and-use-kfifo_skip_count.patch

This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged

Subject: kfifo: introduce and use kfifo_skip_count()
Date: Fri, 23 Feb 2024 12:51:53 +0100

kfifo_skip_count() is an extended version of kfifo_skip(), accepting also
count.  This will be useful in the serial code later.

Now, it can be used to implement both kfifo_skip() and
kfifo_dma_out_finish().  In the latter, 'len' only needs to be divided by
'type' size (as it was until now).

And stop using statement expressions when the return value is cast to
'void'.  Use classic 'do {} while (0)' instead.

Note: perhaps we should skip 'count' records for the 'recsize' case, but
the original (kfifo_dma_out_finish()) used to skip only one record.  So
this is kept unchanged and 'count' is still ignored in the recsize case.
