Vadim Lobanov 01b2d93ca4 [PATCH] fdtable: Provide free_fdtable() wrapper
Christoph Hellwig has expressed concerns that the recent fdtable changes
expose the details of the RCU methodology used to release no-longer-used
fdtable structures to the rest of the kernel.  The trivial patch below
addresses these concerns by introducing the appropriate free_fdtable()
calls, which simply wrap the release RCU usage.  Since free_fdtable() is a
one-liner, it makes sense to promote it to an inline helper.
