The patch titled
Subject: cpumask: add helper cpumask_available()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
cpumask-add-helper-cpumask_available.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: Matthias Kaehlcke <mka@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: cpumask: add helper cpumask_available()
With CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y cpumask_var_t is a struct cpumask pointer,
otherwise a struct cpumask array with a single element.
Some code dealing with cpumasks needs to validate that a cpumask_var_t is
not a NULL pointer when CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y. This is typically done
by performing the check always, regardless of the underlying type of
cpumask_var_t. This works in both cases, however clang raises a warning
like this when CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n:
kernel/irq/manage.c:839:28: error: address of array
'desc->irq_common_data.affinity' will always evaluate to 'true'
[-Werror,-Wpointer-bool-conversion]
Add the inline helper cpumask_available() which only performs the pointer
check if CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y.
