Subject: [PATCH rcu 4/8] rcu/kvfree: Invoke debug_rcu_bhead_unqueue() after checking bnode->gp_snap

From: Zqiang <qiang1.zhang@...el.com>

If kvfree_rcu_bulk() sees that the required grace period has failed to
elapse, it leaks the memory because readers might still be using it.
But in that case, the debug-objects subsystem still marks the relevant
structures as having been freed, even though they are instead being
leaked.

This commit fixes this mismatch by invoking debug_rcu_bhead_unqueue()
only when we are actually going to free the objects.
