[PATCH -next] rust: poll: fix compilation error due to kvfree_call_rcu changes

From: Vlastimil Babka (SUSE)

Date: Wed Aug 05 2026 - 12:36:03 EST


kvfree_call_rcu() changed the type of its parameter to kvfree_rcu_head
in commit acc6fdade62c ("mm/slab: introduce struct kvfree_rcu_head for
kvfree_rcu batching") in the slab tree

Meanwhile rust started relying on the old type in commit e5e86df8b666
("rust: poll: use kfree_rcu() for PollCondVar") in the char-misc tree.

Reconcile the two changes as suggested by Gary [1]. This should be
applied as the merge commit for either slab tree or char-misc tree,
whichever is merged to -next later. The code it changes comes from
char-misc tree.
