Subject: lib/plist: add helper functions
From: Dan Streetman <ddstreet@xxxxxxxx>
commit fd16618e12a05df79a3439d72d5ffdac5d34f3da upstream.
Add PLIST_HEAD() to plist.h, equivalent to LIST_HEAD() from list.h, to
define and initialize a struct plist_head.
Add plist_for_each_continue() and plist_for_each_entry_continue(),
equivalent to list_for_each_continue() and list_for_each_entry_continue(),
to iterate over a plist continuing after the current position.
Add plist_prev() and plist_next(), equivalent to (struct list_head*)->prev
and ->next, implemented by list_prev_entry() and list_next_entry(), to
access the prev/next struct plist_node entry. These are needed because
unlike struct list_head, direct access of the prev/next struct plist_node
isn't possible; the list must be navigated via the contained struct
list_head. e.g. instead of accessing the prev by list_prev_entry(node,
node_list) it can be accessed by plist_prev(node).
