Subject: [PATCH v1 3/5] kvfree_rcu: Rename rcu_invoke_kfree_bulk_callback

The purpose of renaming is to have one common trace event
for APIs which use a special "bulk" form to release memory.

In our case we have kfree_bulk() and vfree_bulk(). It does
not make sense to implement two separate trace events which
would be identical expect for their names.

Rename it to "rcu_invoke_free_bulk_callback" and use it as
one trace event for both bulk API's.
