Subject: list: remove __list_for_each()

__list_for_each used to be the non prefetch() aware list walking
primitive.  When we removed the prefetch macros from the list routines, it
became redundant.  Given it does exactly the same thing as list_for_each
now, we might as well remove it and call list_for_each directly.
