Subject: [PATCH v2] list: Add a macro to test if entry is pointing to the head
Add a macro to test if entry is pointing to the head of the list
which is useful in cases like:
list_for_each_entry(pos, &head, member) {
if (cond)
break;
}
if (list_entry_is_head(pos, &head, member))
return -ERRNO;
that allows to avoid additional variable to be added to track if loop
has not been stopped in the middle.
While here, convert list_for_each_entry*() family of macros to use a new one.
