Eric Dumazet ee8f97efa7 gro_cells: avoid using synchronize_rcu() in gro_cells_destroy()
Another thing making netns dismantles potentially very slow is located
in gro_cells_destroy(),
whenever cleanup_net() has to remove a device using gro_cells framework.

RTNL is not held at this stage, so synchronize_net()
is calling synchronize_rcu():

netdev_run_todo()
 ip_tunnel_dev_free()
  gro_cells_destroy()
   synchronize_net()
    synchronize_rcu() // Ouch.

This patch uses call_rcu(), and gave me a 25x performance improvement
in my tests.

cleanup_net() is no longer blocked ~10 ms per synchronize_rcu()
call.

In the case we could not allocate the memory needed to queue the
deferred free, use synchronize_rcu_expedited()

v2: made percpu_free_defer_callback() static
