Yes. I think its past time this were done for these interfaces -- there are probably dozens of private list implementations in the kernel, and its silly -- this can all be replaced by the common list handling routines.

I'll put in my +1.

When we first ported our 10GbE driver to Solaris, I was surprised
to not find list primitives in the DDI.  I ended up just bringing
over the *BSD queue.h macros.  Which I was then asked to remove when
the driver was integrated.  So now the driver (myri10ge) is one of
the dozens with private lists.
