When list->count is 0, the list is deleted by GC. But list->count is
never reached 0 because initial count value is 1 and it is increased
when node is inserted. So that initial value of list->count should be 0.
Originally GC always finds zero count list through deleting node and
decreasing count. However, list may be left empty since node insertion
may fail eg. allocaton problem. In order to solve this problem, GC
routine also finds zero count list without deleting node.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
