Subject: [PATCH net v5 1/4] ax25: Use kernel universal linked list to implement ax25_dev_list

The origin ax25_dev_list implements its own single linked list,
which is complicated and error-prone. For example, when deleting
the node of ax25_dev_list in ax25_dev_device_down(), we have to
operate on the head node and other nodes separately.

This patch uses kernel universal linked list to replace original
ax25_dev_list, which make the operation of ax25_dev_list easier.
There are two points that need to notice:

[1] We should add a check to judge whether the list is empty before
INIT_LIST_HEAD in ax25_dev_device_up(), otherwise it will empty the
list for each new ax25_dev added.

[2] We should do "dev->ax25_ptr = ax25_dev;" and "dev->ax25_ptr = NULL;"
while holding the spinlock, otherwise the ax25_dev_device_up() and
ax25_dev_device_down() could race, we're not guaranteed to find a match
ax25_dev in ax25_dev_device_down().
