[PATCH v2 0/2] Avoid synchronize_rcu() for every thread drop in Rust Binder

[Alice Ryhl]

Right now Rust Binder calls synchronize_rcu() more often than is
necessary. Most processes do not use epoll at all, so they don't require
rcu here. Back in Kangrejos I came up with a way to avoid this. Idea is
to move the value that needs rcu to a separate allocation that's easy to
kfree_rcu(). We pay the allocation only when the proc uses epoll using
an "upgrade" strategy - most processes don't.

One solution that may be better is to just kfree_rcu() the Binder Thread
struct directly when it's refcount drops to zero (Drop of everything
else can still run without a grace period). But I'm not sure how I would
achieve that - after all Thread is also used with kernel::list.
