Under low-memory conditions, kvfree_rcu() will use each object's rcu_head structure to queue objects in a singly linked list headed by the kfree_rcu_cpu structure's ->head field. This list is passed to call_rcu() as a unit, but there is no indication of which grace period this list needs to wait for. This in turn prevents adding debug checks in the kfree_rcu_work() as was done for the two page-of-pointers channels in the kfree_rcu_cpu structure. This commit therefore adds a ->head_free_gp_snap field to the kfree_rcu_cpu_work structure to record this grace-period number. It also adds a WARN_ON_ONCE() to kfree_rcu_monitor() that checks to make sure that the required grace period has in fact elapsed.

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.
