list: remove prefetching from regular list iterators
This is removes the use of software prefetching from the regular list iterators. We don't want it. If you do want to prefetch in some iterator of yours, go right ahead. Just don't expect the iterator to do it, since normally the downsides are bigger than the upsides. It also replaces <linux/prefetch.h> with <linux/const.h>, because the use of LIST_POISON ends up needing it. <linux/poison.h> is sadly not self-contained, and including prefetch.h just happened to hide that. Suggested by David Miller (networking has a lot of regular lists that are often empty or a single entry, and prefetching is not going to do anything but add useless instructions).
