This isn't a new problem, but I noticed that this function should
probably get annotated to describe its interface.

Junio, can you pick up the patch below on top of Ben's series (or I'd be
fine if it were squashed into this patch)?

Subject: [PATCH] pkt-line: annotate packet_writel with LAST_ARG_MUST_BE_NULL

packet_writel() takes a variable-sized list and reads to
the first NULL. Let's let the compiler know so that it can
help us catch mistakes in the callers.

This should have been annotated similarly when it was a
static function, but it's doubly important now that the
function is available to the whole code-base.
