[alternative-merged] panic-add-panic_sys_info-sysctl-to-take-human-readable-string-parameter-fix.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: panic: add __maybe_unused to sys_info_avail
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     panic-add-panic_sys_info-sysctl-to-take-human-readable-string-parameter-fix.patch

This patch was dropped because an alternative patch was or shall be merged

Subject: panic: add __maybe_unused to sys_info_avail
Date: Tue, 08 Jul 2025 08:37:57 -0700

Clang warns (or errors with CONFIG_WERROR=y):

  lib/sys_info.c:52:19: error: variable 'sys_info_avail' is not needed and will not be emitted [-Werror,-Wunneeded-internal-declaration]
     52 | static const char sys_info_avail[] = "tasks,mem,timers,locks,ftrace,all_bt,blocked_tasks";
        |                   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

sys_info_avail is only used within sizeof(), meaning it is only used at
compile time, which clang warns about in case the developer intended to
use the variable elsewhere. This appears to be intentional in this case,
so mark sys_info_avail with __maybe_unused to silence the warning.
