/// If list_for_each_entry, etc complete a traversal of the list, the iterator
/// variable ends up pointing to an address at an offset from the list head,
/// and not a meaningful structure.  Thus this value should not be used after
/// the end of the iterator.
//#False positives arise when there is a goto in the iterator and the
//#reported reference is at the label of this goto.  Some flag tests
//#may also cause a report to be a false positive.
