/**
 * list_sort - sort a list.
 * @priv: private data, passed to @cmp
 * @head: the list to sort
 * @cmp: the elements comparison function
 *
 * This function has been implemented by Mark J Roberts <mjr@znex.org>. It
 * implements "merge sort" which has O(nlog(n)) complexity. The list is sorted
 * in ascending order.
 *
 * The comparison function @cmp is supposed to return a negative value if @a is
 * less than @b, and a positive value if @a is greater than @b. If @a and @b
 * are equivalent, then it does not matter what this function returns.
