The patch titled
     Subject: fsnotify: remove destroy_list from fsnotify_mark
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     fsnotify-remove-destroy_list-from-fsnotify_mark.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx>
Subject: fsnotify: remove destroy_list from fsnotify_mark

destroy_list is used to track marks which still need waiting for srcu
period end before they can be freed.  However by the time mark is added to
destroy_list it isn't in group's list of marks anymore and thus we can
reuse fsnotify_mark->g_list for queueing into destroy_list.  This saves
two pointers for each fsnotify_mark.
