Subject: [PATCH v9 1/2] notifier: Add atomic_notifier_call_chain_is_empty()
Date:   Thu, 19 May 2022 13:50:15 +0300
Message-Id: <20220519105015.1195955-1-dmitry.osipenko@collabora.com>

Add atomic_notifier_call_chain_is_empty() that returns true if given
atomic call chain is empty.

The first user of this new notifier API function will be the kernel
power-off core code that will support power-off call chains. The core
code will need to check whether there is a power-off handler registered
at all in order to decide whether to halt machine or power it off.
