I did not know that linux/list.h can be used by userspace without
modifications. But I guess such dependency would still be inconvenient
for people who are using kconfig externally. Arnaud, what do you think?
So I think that the next-best thing is to copy tools/firewire/list.h.
That way, we avoid all the ifdefs.
