This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

iommu/arm-smmu: Drop if with an always false condition

to the 6.3-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git%3Ba=su...

The filename of the patch is: iommu-arm-smmu-drop-if-with-an-always-false-conditio.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.3 subdirectory.

If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let stable@vger.kernel.org know about it.

I'd not add that patch to stable. It's just about dropping an

if (false) { something(); }

The compiler probably isn't able to see that the condition is always false, so the only benefit is that the patch makes the compiled code a bit smaller.

Dropped, thanks!
