The patch titled
make iunique use a do/while loop rather than its obscure goto loop
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
make-iunique-use-a-do-while-loop-rather-than-its-obscure-goto-loop.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: make iunique use a do/while loop rather than its obscure goto loop
From: Jeffrey Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx>
A while back, Christoph mentioned that he thought that iunique ought to be
cleaned up to use a more conventional loop construct. This patch does that,
turning the strange goto loop into a do/while.
