[PATCH 0/5] cyclic: get rid of (the need for) cyclic_init()

[Rasmus Villemoes]

I have only compile-tested each of these for sandbox_defconfig and
imx8mq_cm_defconfig. I couldn't even figure out how to run the cyclic
test inside sandbox by itself, and I don't have any hardware here at
home. So perhaps just consider these a POC of the overall idea, namely
to use a list abstraction which doesn't need initialization other than
what we already guarantee to do for all of struct global_data.

As positive side effects, the generated code will be a little smaller,
we reduce the use of the early malloc() pool, and the diffstat below
is also nice.

I don't know if we ever do anything in SPL that would require a call
to cyclic_unregister_all().

Rasmus Villemoes (5):
  cyclic: use a flag in gd->flags for recursion protection
  cyclic: drop redundant cyclic_ready flag
  list.h: synchronize hlist_for_each_entry* iterators with linux
  cyclic: switch to using hlist instead of list
  cyclic: get rid of cyclic_init()
