list_replace_init cannot be used if the source is an empty list,
because "new->next->prev = new" will overwrite "old->next":
new old
prev = new, next = new prev = old, next = old
new->next = old->next prev = new, next = old prev = old, next = old
new->next->prev = new prev = new, next = old prev = old, next = new
new->prev = old->prev prev = old, next = old prev = old, next = old
new->next->prev = new prev = old, next = old prev = new, next = new
The desired outcome instead would be to leave both old and new the same
as they were (two empty circular lists). Use list_cut_before, which
already has the necessary check and is documented to discard the
previous contents of the list that will hold the result.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
