Subject: [PATCH v3 2/3] Docs/RCU/rculist_nulls: Fix hlist_[nulls]_head field names of 'obj'
Date:   Thu, 15 Jun 2023 18:10:03 +0000
Message-Id: <20230615181004.86850-3-sj@kernel.org>

The example code snippets on rculist_nulls.rst are assuming 'obj' to
have the 'hlist_head' or 'hlist_nulls_head' field named 'obj_node', but
a sentence and some code snippets are wrongly calling
'obj->obj_node.next' as 'obj->obj_next', or 'obj->obj_node' as 'member'.
Fix it.
