It's pointless to defer it to a kthread helper as we're not under a
special context.
For reference, commit 1f78160ce1 ("Btrfs: using rcu lock in the reader
side of devices list") introduced RCU freeing for device structures.
Originally the blkdev_put was called from free_device and rcu_barrier had
to be called. This is no longer required, bdev and our device structures
are now freed separately.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
