Hi Ankur,

After Nithin's head up on this, I have verified and the issue I raised is 
incorrect. Indeed, the head of a LIST_ENTRY does not contain a valid element. I 
was expecting to have a NULL pointer, instead of a dummy one.

Thanks,
Sorin

Hi Sorin,

Kindly let me know if you have concerns over it.
As per my understanding as well we are not skipping any valid list node.

Thanks.

Regards,
Ankur

Did you mean to say, that we don't check the first element in the linked list? 
The first element is 'head' and it is a dummy. 'head' itself, does not have a 
CONTAINING_RECORD() AFAIK. Please see the code in: km/wdm.h in the Visual 
Studio kernel includes.

Thanks,
