From 1eafe075bf9cb4db575be4ddf1b1c8256758714a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Asif Rasheed Date: Sun, 20 Sep 2020 17:31:54 +0400 Subject: list.h: Update comment to explicitly note circular lists The students in the Operating System Lecture Section at the American University of Sharjah were confused by the header comment in include/linux/list.h, which says "Simple doubly linked list implementation". This comment means "simple" as in "not complex", but "simple" is often used in this context to mean "not circular". This commit therefore avoids this ambiguity by explicitly calling out "circular".
