The autogroups list is a list of non overlapping group boundaries
sorted by their start index. If the autogroups list wasn't empty
and an empty group slot was found at the start of the list,
the new group was added to the end of the list instead of the
beginning, as the prev initializer was incorrect.
When this was repeated, it caused multiple groups to have
overlapping boundaries.
Fixed that by correctly initializing the prev pointer to the
start of the list.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
