Uladzislau Rezki (Sony) 8c15a9e808 rcu/kvfree: Move bulk/list reclaim to separate functions
The kvfree_rcu() code maintains lists of pages of pointers, but also a
singly linked list, with the latter being used when memory allocation
fails.  Traversal of these two types of lists is currently open coded.
This commit simplifies the code by providing kvfree_rcu_bulk() and
kvfree_rcu_list() functions, respectively, to traverse these two types
of lists.  This patch does not introduce any functional change.

README

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.
