If we move an item on qlist's tail, we need to update qlist's tail
properly. curr->next can be NULL since it is singly linked list
so it is invalid for tail. curr is scheduled to be moved so
using prev would be correct.

Unfortunately, I got this bug sometime ago and lose oops message.
But, the bug looks trivial and no need to attach oops.
