[merged mm-stable] mm-factor-out-can_spin_trylock.patch removed from -mm tree

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm: factor out can_spin_trylock()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-factor-out-can_spin_trylock.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Deduplicate checks for whether the current context is safe for
spin_trylock().

Does this function really belong in mm/internal.h or is it generic?  Not
sure.  If someone ends up duplicating this logic elsewhere in the kernel,
that would be a shame.  But if it goes in some generic header, someone
treats it as documentation about where it's guaranteed safe to
spin_trylock(), and then it emerges that there are other subtle
preconditions that didn't affect the mm usecase, that would be worse.  So,
just be conservative and keep it local.
