[RFC PATCH 00/13] Fix parentheses around macro parameter use in headers

[Mathieu Desnoyers]

I tried to look at various list and list user headers in the kernel tree
to figure out what the proper parentheses pattern should be around macro
parameter use for new code, and it turns out that the current code base
lacks consistency.

This is not an exhaustive change of all public kernel headers, but at
least it is a start, updating those which are implementing or using
kernel lists.

The basic rules followed here are:

- Use parentheses around arguments which are rvalues, except when those
  are expressions between commas "," used as arguments to functions or
  other macros, or surrounded by brackets "[]".
- Do not use parentheses around arguments which are lvalues.

For consistency, when a macro argument is used both as an lvalue and as
an rvalue within the macro, use the parentheses rules applying to each
of the context: with parentheses for rvalue, without parentheses for
lvalue.
