Subject: [PATCH -mm 2/6] slob: introduce __kfree_rcu


Introduce __kfree_rcu() for kfree_rcu()

The object pointer is stored in head->func instead of the
function pointer, and these rcu head(which are the same batch)
are queued in a list. When a batch's grace period is completed,
the objects in this batch are freed, and then we proccess the
next batch(if next batch not empty).
