When hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh() gets "next" pointer of
hlist_node structure through rcu_dereference_bh(), sparse warning
appears as the "next" pointer is not annotated as __rcu. So if
the "next" pointer is accessed with hlist_next_rcu() macro, the
__rcu annotation will be added to the pointer. As a consequence,
sparse warning is eliminated too.
The similar errors also appear in hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu()
and hlist_for_each_entry_from_rcu().
In this version, CC more people like Paul E. McKenney and lkml mail
list.

The commit 97ede29e80ee ("tipc: convert name table read-write lock to
RCU") involves the following sparse when using
make ARCH=x86_64 allmodconfig
make C=1 CF=-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__
net/tipc/name_table.c:1136:17: sparse: incompatible types in comparison expression (different address spaces)
net/tipc/name_table.c:1136:17: sparse: incompatible types in comparison expression (different address spaces)
To silence above spare complaint, an RCU annotation should be added
to "next" pointer of hlist_node structure through hlist_next_rcu()
macro when iterating over a hlist with hlist_for_each_entry_from_rcu().
By the way, this commit also simplifies the way of dereferencing
the first element of a hlist_head list by replacing
hlist_for_each_entry_rcu() with hlist_entry_safe().

This fixes the following spare warning when using
make C=1 CF=-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__ net/ipv6/addrconf.o

to "next" pointer of hlist_node structure through hlist_next_rcu()
macro when iterating over a hlist with
hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh().
By the way, this commit also resolves the same error appearing in
hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu().

If you pull the rculist.h changes from the first patch into this one,
I will queue it up through -rcu.

The rculist.h changes should go via Paul's tree, not mine.

Please just queue this patch into your RCU tree. Some changes of the
first patch currently only exists in net-next tree, so it cannot be
merged into RCU tree now. Therefore, please temporarily ignore it. In
next 3.19 development cycle, I will resubmit it to you.

Sounds good, but could you please rebase the second patch to be
independent of the first patch? If you do that, I would be happy
to queue it.
