 **Description:**
 Inconsistency between Function Description and Implementation: The
 function is described as checking for an off-chain node based on the
 presence of NULL values in both the "next" and "previous" fields. However,
 the "_Chain_Is_node_off_chain" function, which is called within this
 function, only checks for a NULL value in the "next" field.
 Recommendation: Review and rectify the mismatch between the function
 description and implementation.

 **Additional Notes:**
 The file having this problem is:
 -       cpukit\include\rtems\chain.h (function
 rtems_chain_is_node_off_chain) (line 224)

 This ticket was raised as an outcome of the Independent SW Verification
 and Validation (ISVV) for ESA-promoted RTEMS SMP Qualification Data Packs
 (https://rtems-qual.io.esa.int). Original ISVV reference for this issue is
