I think that that code doesn't make sense. The users of hlist_for_each_* aren't
supposed to be changing the loop cursor.

I totally agree. Modifying the 'node' pointer is just asking for issues.
Yes that is error prone, but not due to the double loop. It's due to the
modifying of the node pointer that is used internally by the loop
counter. Don't do that :-)

While we're on this subject, I haven't actually seen hlist_for_each_entry() code
that even *touches* 'pos'.

Will people yell at me loudly if I change the prototype of those macros to be:

	hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, head, member)

(Dropping the 'pos' parameter), and updating anything that calls those macros to
drop it as well?


Thanks,
Sasha
