list: Add lockless list traversal primitives
Although list_for_each_entry_rcu() can in theory be used anywhere
preemption is disabled, it can result in calls to lockdep, which cannot
be used in certain constrained execution environments, such as exception
handlers that do not map the entire kernel into their address spaces.
This commit therefore adds list_entry_lockless() and
list_for_each_entry_lockless(), which never invoke lockdep and can
therefore safely be used from these constrained environments, but only
as long as those environments are non-preemptible (or items are never
deleted from the list).
Use synchronize_sched(), call_rcu_sched(), or synchronize_sched_expedited()
in updates for the needed grace periods. Of course, if items are never
deleted from the list, there is no need to wait for grace periods.
