I just noticed that the plist kerneldoc is really pathetic. Not your
fault, but lets not continue the trend. The above descriptions of the
@node and @head are really lame. It adds nothing to the prototype. It's
equivalent to:

        /* increment i */
        i++;

Something like this is better:

 * @node:  The plist_node to be added to @head
 * @head:  The plist_head that @node is being added to

The oneline description you have above is good. Ideally, we should have
a bit more detailed description here too. But for now we can leave it.
The rest of the @node and @head's should be fixed too.

As I said above. This horrible kerneldoc was there before and is not
your fault. But if you are going to touch it, lets fix it up first.

 * @is_head: True if adding to head of prio list, false otherwise

The above is very lacking if I want to use this, or know how to use it.
It does not tell me what @is_head must be to add before or behind them.

 * For nodes of the same prio, @node will be added at the head of
 * previously added nodes if @is_head is true, or it will be added
 * at the tail of previously added nodes if @is_head is false.

That will be much more descriptive for people looking at this code for
the first time.

The rest of the code looks fine.
