Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 3/4] rcu/tree: Count number of batched kfree_rcu() locklessly
From: "Joel Fernandes (Google)" <joel@...lfernandes.org>
We can relax the correctness of counting of number of queued objects in
favor of not hurting performance, by locklessly sampling per-cpu
counters. This should be Ok since under high memory pressure, it should not
matter if we are off by a few objects while counting. The shrinker will
still do the reclaim.
