Except for waiting_for_gp list, there are no concurrent operations on
free_by_rcu, free_llist and free_llist_extra lists, so use
__llist_del_all() instead of llist_del_all(). waiting_for_gp list can be
deleted by RCU callback concurrently, so still use llist_del_all().

Seems safe even without the previous patch? OTOH, do we really care
about __lllist vs llist in the cleanup path? Might be safer to always
do llist_del_all everywhere?
