list.h: Add list_splice_tail() and list_splice_tail_init()
If you are using linked lists for queues list_splice() will not do what you would expect even if you use the elements passed reversed. We need to handle these differently. We add list_splice_tail() and list_splice_tail_init(). Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
