list_next_entry, that sounds almost as something which given any list_head
will give you the next entry. That's all fine until you give it the last
list_head in the list - you'll try to use list_entry on a list_head that's
not part of a struct but is the head of the list instead.

Ditto.

The same could be said about regular list_entry(), however we do have
it and it is pretty useful.
