The kernel's `list_empty()` checks `head->next == head`. An isolated/empty node has both `next` and `prev` pointing to itself after `INIT_LIST_HEAD`. Using `&&` here means a node where only `next` has been corrupted to point elsewhere (but `prev` still points to self) would be considered "linked." This seems unlikely in practice, but it might be worth noting that the kernel's own `list_empty` only checks `next`. For the actual use in this series (`is_empty` on `CList` returns `!is_linked()`), the behavior is functionally equivalent for properly-formed lists, so this is a minor observation.

> +	}

The `next()` method returns `&Self` with the same lifetime as the `from_raw` call. Since `from_raw` binds the lifetime to the caller's choice via `'a`, and `next()` borrows `&self`, the returned reference is correctly constrained to the lifetime of `self`. No issue here.

The macro calls `CList::from_raw($head)` which is an `unsafe` function, but the macro itself is documented as unsafe. The compile-time field type check is a nice touch. However, the type-checking closure `let _: fn(...) -> ...` constructs a function value that is never used - it could arguably be a `const _` or similar, but as-is it works for compile-time verification.

The `CListHeadIter` implements `FusedIterator`, which is correct since after returning `None` (when `current == sentinel`), it will continue to return `None` - `current` is never advanced past the sentinel.

No significant issues found. This is a clean implementation of a read-only C list iteration interface.
