Remove Nodes From Linked List
<p>You are given the <code>head</code> of a linked list.</p>

<p>Remove every node which has a node with a greater value anywhere to the right side of it.</p>

<p>Return <em>the </em><code>head</code><em> of the modified linked list.</em></p>

<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> head = [5,2,13,3,8]
<strong>Output:</strong> [13,8]
<strong>Explanation:</strong> The nodes that should be removed are 5, 2 and 3.
- Node 13 is to the right of node 5.
- Node 13 is to the right of node 2.
- Node 8 is to the right of node 3.
</pre>

<p><strong class="example">Example 2:</strong></p>

<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> head = [1,1,1,1]
<strong>Output:</strong> [1,1,1,1]
<strong>Explanation:</strong> Every node has value 1, so no nodes are removed.
</pre>

<ul>
	<li>The number of the nodes in the given list is in the range <code>[1, 10<sup>5</sup>]</code>.</li>
	<li><code>1 &lt;= Node.val &lt;= 10<sup>5</sup></code></li>
