[RFC PATCH 08/13] llist.h: Fix parentheses around macro pointer parameter use

[Mathieu Desnoyers]

Add missing parentheses around use of macro argument "pos" in those
patterns to ensure operator precedence behaves as expected:

- typeof(*pos)
- pos->member
- "x = y" is changed for "x = (y)", because "y" can be an expression
  containing a comma if it is the result of the expansion of a macro such
  as #define eval(...) __VA_ARGS__, which would cause unexpected operator
  precedence. This use-case is far-fetched, but we have to choose one
  way or the other (with or without parentheses) for consistency.

The typeof(*pos) lack of parentheses around "pos" is not an issue per se
in the specific macros modified here because "pos" is used as an lvalue,
which should prevent use of any operator causing issue. Still add the
extra parentheses for consistency.

Remove useless parentheses around use of macro parameter (node) in the
following patterns:

- llist_entry((node), typeof(*(pos)), member) is changed for
  llist_entry(node, typeof(*(pos)), member),
- "(pos) = (node)" is changed for "pos = (node)".

Because comma is the lowest priority operator already, so the extra pair
of parentheses is redundant.
