| |
* Make __list_add_rcu check the next->prev and prev->next pointers just like __list_add does. * Make list_del_rcu use __list_del_entry, which does the same checking at deletion time.
Has been running for a week here without anything being tripped up, but it seems worth adding for completeness just in case something ever does corrupt those lists.
