[PATCH 04/17] ipv6: replace call_rcu by kfree_rcu for simple kmem_cache_free callback

From: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@inria.fr>
Date: 2024-10-13 20:18:12
Also in: kernel-janitors, lkml
Subsystem: networking [general], networking [ipv4/ipv6], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, David Ahern, Ido Schimmel, Linus Torvalds

Since SLOB was removed and since
commit 6c6c47b063b5 ("mm, slab: call kvfree_rcu_barrier() from kmem_cache_destroy()"),
it is not necessary to use call_rcu when the callback only performs
kmem_cache_free. Use kfree_rcu() directly.

The changes were made using Coccinelle.
