Comment (by korli):
This comment makes it clear why the linked list is used. Not failing for
out of memory is a common feature in the kernel, definitely to retain.
"The link between entries is part of the ValueType stored items, which
makes sure the table can always accept new items and will never fail
because it is out of memory (except at Init time)."
