Also, I think that it might be possible to get rid of RCU call in kmem
cache destructor, because the cgroup subsystem already handles it and
we could probably piggyback - see my comment to 5/7. Not sure if it's
really necessary, since we already have RCU in SLUB, but worth looking
into, I guess, as it might simplify the code a bit.
