This isn't used any more.
The new comment is odd - this is no net_ni_cpt !!
The ni_cptlist linkage is no longer used - should it go too?

I'm assuming that a future patch will be chaining the NI structure on to the NET structure it belongs to.  This patch is just not chaining the NIs on a global NIS list anymore.  As such, ni_cptlist is being "repurposed".

The NI is already chained onto the NET through
 lnet_net.net_ni_list and lnet_ni.ni_netlist

ni_cptlist is not used even in current master.
It is never added to any list, but lnet_ni_unlink_locked() does remove
it from a list.  Is that code wrong (should be checking ni_netlist), or
is it cruft that should be removed?

Thanks,
NeilBrown

This area was re-implemented. There is no need for ni_cptlist any longer. I
looked at the current code and it's not being used.
Originally it was being used to place the the ni on a global list:
ln_nis_cpt. Which was traversed when attempting to calculate the cpt for a
NID using lnet_cpt_of_nid_locked(). However that latter function has been
re-implemented due to how MR works now. So there is not need for ni_cptlist.
