The following changes are introduced: 1. Rename rcu_invoke_kfree_callback() to rcu_invoke_kvfree_callback(), as well as the associated trace events, so the rcu_kfree_callback(), becomes rcu_kvfree_callback(). The reason is to be aligned with kvfree() notation. 2. Rename __is_kfree_rcu_offset to __is_kvfree_rcu_offset. All RCU paths use kvfree() now instead of kfree(), thus rename it. 3. Rename kfree_call_rcu() to the kvfree_call_rcu(). The reason is, it is capable of freeing vmalloc() memory now. Do the same with __kfree_rcu() macro, it becomes __kvfree_rcu(), the goal is the same.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
