[PATCH 08/10] lib/list_sort: selftest: stress algorithm with lists of various lengths

[don . mullis]

Add a loop that tests lists of various lengths, including
some powers-of-two, which are a corner case for this algorithm.

Signed-off-by: Don Mullis <don.mullis@xxxxxxxxx>
Cc: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@xxxxxxxxx>

Testing verifies that the powers-of-two bug is reported on the boot
console.
