Subject: [PATCH] llist: Make locking comments consistent
Date: Thu,  7 May 2026 11:49:19 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260507094918.23910-2-phasta@kernel.org> (raw)

llist's locking requirement table has a legend which claims that all
operations not needing a lock a marked with '-', whereas in truth for
some table entries just a whitespace is used.

Add the '-' to all appropriate places.
