It is a simple alias to kfree_rcu() which can now handle either type of object. <snip> struct test_kvfree_rcu { struct rcu_head rcu; unsigned char array[100]; }; struct test_kvfree_rcu *p; p = kvmalloc(10 * PAGE_SIZE); if (p) kvfree_rcu(p, rcu); <snip> Signed-off-by: Uladzislau Rezki (Sony) <urezki@gmail.com> Co-developed-by: Joel Fernandes (Google) <joel@joelfernandes.org> Reviewed-by: Joel Fernandes (Google) <joel@joelfernandes.org> Signed-off-by: Joel Fernandes (Google) <joel@joelfernandes.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.
