[PATCH v3] Documentation/core-api: min_heap: remove documented but unimplemented min_heap_empty()

From: Jyun-An Chen

Date: Tue Jul 21 2026 - 16:25:02 EST


min_heap_empty()/min_heap_empty_inline() are documented as part of
the Min Heap API, but no such functions or macros exist in
include/linux/min_heap.h or lib/min_heap.c. Remove the stale
description instead of adding unused API surface.
