The patch titled
     Subject: scripts/gdb: fix list_for_each
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     scripts-gdb-fix-list_for_each.patch

------------------------------------------------------
From: George Prekas <prekageo@amazon.com>
Subject: scripts/gdb: fix list_for_each

If the list is uninitialized (next pointer is NULL), list_for_each gets
stuck in an infinite loop. Print a message and treat list as empty.
