The patch titled Subject: err.h: add (missing) unlikely() to IS_ERR_OR_NULL() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was errh-add-missing-unlikely-to-is_err_or_null.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: err.h: add (missing) unlikely() to IS_ERR_OR_NULL() IS_ERR_VALUE() already contains it and so we need to add this only to the !ptr check. That will allow users of IS_ERR_OR_NULL(), to not add this compiler flag.
