You can't get them off the middle of the llist without adding
locking to all the llist operations. I chose llist because it's
lockless primitives matched the "add single/remove all" pattern of
batch processing that the per-cpu inactive queue implementation
required.  Hence if you want to do anything other that "single
add/remove all" with the inactive queue, you're going to have to
replace it with a different queue implementation....

Cheers,

Dave.
