commit 3c5d61ae919cc377c71118ccc76fa6e8518023f8 upstream.

Add a kvfree_rcu_barrier() function. It waits until all in-flight pointers are freed over RCU machinery. It does not wait any GP completion and it is within its right to return immediately if there are no outstanding pointers.

This function is useful when there is a need to guarantee that a memory is fully freed before destroying memory caches. For example, during unloading a kernel module.
