I got curious why one would want to keep a linked list sorted in the
first place (it can't be for doing binary searches). But it seems that
gb_loopback_device::list is unused, along with the list_op_async. Given
that the below compiles, doesn't that prove that the code is
dead/unused, or what am I missing?
