Eric Dumazet 78c3253f27 net: use synchronize_rcu_expedited in cleanup_net()
cleanup_net() is calling synchronize_rcu() right before
acquiring RTNL.

synchronize_rcu() is much slower than synchronize_rcu_expedited(),
and cleanup_net() is currently single threaded. In many workloads
we want cleanup_net() to be fast, in order to free memory and various
sysfs and procfs entries as fast as possible.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
