klist: implement klist_add_{after|before}()

Add klist_add_after() and klist_add_before() which puts a new node after and before an existing node, respectively. This is useful for callers which need to keep klist ordered. Note that synchronizing between simultaneous additions for ordering is the caller's responsibility. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]>
