Subject: [PATCH rcu 3/8] rcu/kvfree: Add debug check for GP complete for kfree_rcu_cpu list

From: "Uladzislau Rezki (Sony)" <[email protected]>

Under low-memory conditions, kvfree_rcu() will use each object's
rcu_head structure to queue objects in a singly linked list headed by
the kfree_rcu_cpu structure's ->head field. This list is passed to
call_rcu() as a unit, but there is no indication of which grace period
this list needs to wait for. This in turn prevents adding debug checks
in the kfree_rcu_work() as was done for the two page-of-pointers channels
in the kfree_rcu_cpu structure.

This commit therefore adds a ->head_free_gp_snap field to the
kfree_rcu_cpu_work structure to record this grace-period number. It also
adds a WARN_ON_ONCE() to kfree_rcu_monitor() that checks to make sure
that the required grace period has in fact elapsed.
