[list.h] don't evaluate macro args multiple times

I noticed that list.h init functions were evaluating macro arguments multiple
times and thought it might be nice to protect the unsuspecting caller.
Converting the macros to inline functions seems to reduce code size, too.  A
i386 defconfig build with gcc 3.3.3 from fc4:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
3573148  565664  188828 4327640  4208d8 vmlinux.before
3572177  565664  188828 4326669  42050d vmlinux

add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 11/144 up/down: 88/-1016 (-928)

There was no difference in checkstack output.
