trouble% grep STAILQ /sys/dev/ubsec/ubsec.c
#define SIMPLEQ_HEAD STAILQ_HEAD
#define SIMPLEQ_ENTRY STAILQ_ENTRY
#define SIMPLEQ_INIT STAILQ_INIT
#define SIMPLEQ_INSERT_TAIL STAILQ_INSERT_TAIL
#define SIMPLEQ_EMPTY STAILQ_EMPTY
#define SIMPLEQ_FIRST STAILQ_FIRST
#define SIMPLEQ_REMOVE_HEAD STAILQ_REMOVE_HEAD_UNTIL
#define SIMPLEQ_FOREACH STAILQ_FOREACH
Not sure who's to blaim for this but it'd be nice to unify the names so
drivers don't need portability shims like this.
