[PATCH RFC tip/core/rcu 2/6] rcu: List-debug variants of rcu list routines.

[Paul E. McKenney]

From: Dave Jones <davej@xxxxxxxxxx>

* Make __list_add_rcu check the next->prev and prev->next pointers
  just like __list_add does.
* Make list_del_rcu use __list_del_entry, which does the same checking
  at deletion time.

Has been running for a week here without anything being tripped up,
but it seems worth adding for completeness just in case something
ever does corrupt those lists.
