Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Make struct rcu_head searchable
After wasting too much time trying to see where struct rcu_head was
declared, I finally found it in include/linux/types.h as a define for
callback_head!
To prevent other developers from wasting their precious time in
searching for this structure, add a comment to help them find it!
