Subject: lib/stackdepot: allow users to evict stack traces
Date: Mon, 20 Nov 2023 18:47:15 +0100
Add stack_depot_put, a function that decrements the reference counter on a
stack record and removes it from the stack depot once the counter reaches
0.
Internally, when removing a stack record, the function unlinks it from the
hash table bucket and returns to the freelist.
With this change, the users of stack depot can call stack_depot_put when
keeping a stack trace in the stack depot is not needed anymore. This
allows avoiding polluting the stack depot with irrelevant stack traces and
thus have more space to store the relevant ones before the stack depot
reaches its capacity.
