Correct.  There is no difference, but Coccinelle is smart enough to
parse list_for_each_entry() and it's not smart enough to parse
list_for_each().

There is a Coccinelle script scripts/coccinelle/iterators/itnull.cocci
which will complain about the NULL check in the new code so this patch
will introduce a new warning.  We may as well remove the unnecessary
NULL check and avoid the warning.
