Why not ditch list_initialized and instead just declare the list as:

static struct instructions_powerpc head = {
	.list = LIST_HEAD_INIT(head.list),
}

Just like the kernel sources do? See for instance:

  net/core/net_namespace.c

struct net init_net = {
        .dev_base_head = LIST_HEAD_INIT(init_net.dev_base_head),
};
