list: add a new LRU list type

Several subsystems use the same construct for LRU lists - a list head, a
spin lock and and item count.  They also use exactly the same code for
adding and removing items from the LRU.  Create a generic type for these
LRU lists.

This is the beginning of generic, node aware LRUs for shrinkers to work
with.
