I don't see what is the goal of the above code. The list_head variable is
not going to be in a statement by itself. There is also no need to check
for l being NULL. If it is NULL, the original code is incorrect too.

Here you don't need the outer ( ). This makes a disjunction with only
one choice. Since there is only one choice, you don't need the
disjunction.
