    WTF?

    Next somebody will decide that our list handling macros don't match
    their mood, and make up their own.

    Guys, there's a real advantage to just following convention and not
    confusing people with new made-up stuff that does the same thing just
    using slightly different names and slightly different semantics.

    So let the tasklet rework people work on their own little thing if
    they can't play with the rest of the kernel.

    We'll just ignore them.
