master 941d155: Remove incorrect byte-hunk-handler for `eval`

[Mattias Engdegård]

branch: master
commit 941d15558f013612689afe9fd2501ce6119a5120
Author: Mattias Engdegård <mattiase@acm.org>
Commit: Mattias Engdegård <mattiase@acm.org>

    Remove incorrect byte-hunk-handler for `eval`
    
    This optimisation is of very limited utility and miscompiles top-level
    code having the form (eval 'CODE t) by replacing it with CODE which
    will then, as things currently stand, be evaluated with dynamic binding.
    
    * lisp/emacs-lisp/bytecomp.el (byte-compile-file-form-eval): Remove.
