Not sure this is the same.
This will write back the current value of epi->rdllink.next to
epi->rdllink if epi->rdllink.next is not &epi->rdllink.

The intention is to check if epi->rdllink.next is set to &epi->rdllink
(pointing to itself) and if so set it NULL just to avoid to ensure
further cmpxchg() will fail here.
