[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: llist: make llist_add_batch() a static inline
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     llist-make-llist_add_batch-a-static-inline.patch

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

The function is small enough that it should be, and it's a (very) hot path
for io_uring.  Doing this actually reduces my vmlinux text size for my
standard build/test box.

Before:
axboe@r7625 ~/g/linux (test)> size vmlinux
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex		filename
19892174 5938310 2470432 28300916 1afd674	vmlinux

After:
axboe@r7625 ~/g/linux (test)> size vmlinux
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex		filename
19891878 5938310 2470436 28300624 1afd550	vmlinux
