I've interviewed a lot of people, and I've asked LL questions, besides other algorithmic questions, and mostly I ask these questions to new grads with no much experience.
The reason is, if you don't have much work experience, what else would I ask you, it's something that you've been learning about recently in your CS degree, and I want to see if you can apply what you learned.
If you have work experience that is relevant, or don't have a CS degree, I'll ask something else.
For me I feel that a lot of people don't understand that an interview is a conversation, feel free to think out loud, ask questions, and ask for help. I want to see your thinking process, I don't really care about the actual solution.
