[PATCH RFC fs/namespace] Make kern_unmount() use synchronize_rcu_expedited()

[Paul E. McKenney]

Experimental.  Not for inclusion.  Yet, anyway.

Freeing large numbers of namespaces in quick succession can result in
a bottleneck on the synchronize_rcu() invoked from kern_unmount().
This patch applies the synchronize_rcu_expedited() hammer to allow
further testing and fault isolation.

Hey, at least there was no need to change the comment!  ;-)
