The list iterator in a list_for_each_entry() loop can never be NULL.
If the loop exits without hitting a break then the iterator points
to an offset off the list head and dereferencing it is an out of
bounds access.
Before we transitioned to using list_for_each_entry() loops, then
it was possible for "entry" to be NULL and the comments mention
this. I have updated the comments to match the new code.

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.
