Less confusing surely.

The name suggests that it would free the > entire list and what's wrong with using kfree() directly on "entry" anyway? I just want to make interface symmetric.

There are callers which need separating list_del from kfree, so exported two interfaces here. Will add another helper interface resource_list_destroy_entry(). Regards!
