Move rcu-protected lists from list.h into a new header file rculist.h.
This is done because list are a very used primitive structure all over the
kernel and it's currently impossible to include other header files in this
list.h without creating some circular dependencies.
For example, list.h implements rcu-protected list and uses rcu_dereference()
without including rcupdate.h. It actually compiles because users of
rcu_dereference() are macros. Others RCU functions could be used too but
aren't probably because of this.
Therefore this patch creates rculist.h which includes rcupdates without to
many changes/troubles.

Lockdep found the following potential deadlock between mcast_lock and
n_mcast_grps_lock: mcast_lock is taken from both interrupt context and
process context, so spin_lock_irqsave() must be used to take it.
n_mcast_grps_lock is only taken from process context, so at first it
seems safe to take it with plain spin_lock(); however, it also nests
inside mcast_lock, and hence we could deadlock:
cpu A cpu B
ipath_mcast_add():
spin_lock_irq(&mcast_lock);
ipath_mcast_detach():
spin_lock(&n_mcast_grps_lock);
<enter interrupt>
ipath_mcast_find():
spin_lock_irqsave(&mcast_lock);
spin_lock(&n_mcast_grps_lock);
Fix this by using spin_lock_irq() to take n_mcast_grps_lock.

These limits are somewhat artificial in that we don't actually have any
device limits. However, the verbs layer expects that such limits exist
and are enforced, so we make up arbitrary (but sensible) limits.
