[PATCH v2 08/28] list: add a new LRU list type

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner at redhat.com>

Several subsystems use the same construct for LRU lists - a list
head, a spin lock and and item count. They also use exactly the same
code for adding and removing items from the LRU. Create a generic
type for these LRU lists.

This is the beginning of generic, node aware LRUs for shrinkers to
work with.
