From: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

commit 31733463372e8d88ea54bfa1e35178aad9b2ffd2 upstream.

commit ff042f4a9b050 ("mm: lru_cache_disable: replace work queue
synchronization with synchronize_rcu") replaced lru_cache_disable's usage
of work queues with synchronize_rcu.

Some users reported large performance regressions due to this commit, for
example:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220521234616.GO1790663@paulmck-ThinkPad-P17-Gen-1/T/

Switching to synchronize_rcu_expedited fixes the problem.
