[PATCH] list: introduce list_bulk_move_tail helper

[Christian König]

Move all entries between @first and including @last before @head.

This is useful for LRU lists where a whole block of entries should be
moved to the end of the list.

Used as a band aid in TTM, but better placed in the common list headers.
