I've spent some more time looking at this, and I'm satisfied that this
isn't a problem introduced by my CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST changes. Thoughts
below...

The main issue is that the argument for "next" coming in to the check
is NULL to begin with. That indicates serious problems somewhere else.
If CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST wasn't set, the crash would still have happened
during "next->prev = new;" (since next is NULL):

static inline void __list_add_rcu(struct list_head *new,
                struct list_head *prev, struct list_head *next)
{
       if (!__list_add_valid(new, prev, next))
               return;

       new->next = next;
       new->prev = prev;
       rcu_assign_pointer(list_next_rcu(prev), new);
       next->prev = new;
}

So, this appears to be a bug somewhere else that happens to manifest
as a crash in the check (and would have crashed in the same place
under CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST before my changes too).
