This patch provides infrastructure for deferring buffer frees.

This is a feature ION provided which when used with some form
of a page pool, provides a nice performance boost in an
allocation microbenchmark. The reason it helps is it allows the
page-zeroing to be done out of the normal allocation/free path,
and pushed off to a kthread.

As not all heaps will find this useful, its implemented as
a optional helper library that heaps can utilize.

Hi John,
Just a couple nits, otherwise looks sane to me.

I suggest adding some more description for this API and how it can be
used. IIUC there are 2 uses: lazy deferred freeing using kthread, and
object pooling. no_pool parameter I think deserves some explanation
(disallows pooling when system is under memory pressure).

This enum is used for a bool parameter. Either make it part of the
public API or eliminate and use bool instead.

I assume deferred_freelist_item gets embedded in a structure that is
actually being freed?
