Subject[PATCH 0/2] introduce list_for_each_entry_del
Date
A purely janitorial patchset.  A fairly common pattern is to take a
list, remove every object from it and do something with this object -
usually kfree() some variant. A stupid grep identified roughly 300
instances, with many more hidden behind more complicated patterns to
achieve the same end results.

This patchset moves the boilerplate code into list.h and uses it in a
few example places. Diffstat is pretty clear and imo the code is
improved as well.

Drawback is that object size is growing. I think an ideal compiler
should be able to optimize all the overhead away, but 4.7 just isn't
there yet. Or maybe I just messed up - patches are only
compile-tested after all. Comments/ideas are welcome.
