From cb9ddd5eec36831a80572aa3d33be62eff791e74 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>

Subject: [PATCH 121/191] kernel/sched: move stack + kprobe clean up to
 __put_task_struct()

There is no need to free the stack before the task struct (except for reasons
mentioned in commit 68f24b08ee89 ("sched/core: Free the stack early if
CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK")). This also comes handy on -RT because we can't
free memory in preempt disabled region.
vfree_atomic() delays the memory cleanup to a worker. Since we move everything
to the RCU callback, we can also free it immediately.
