From: "Uladzislau Rezki (Sony)" <urezki@xxxxxxxxx> 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.
