The callback function of call_rcu() just calls a kfree(), so we
can use kfree_rcu() instead of call_rcu() + callback function.

dpatch engine is used to auto generate this patch.

A good idea. thanks.
I wonder if we might squash this with
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1504361/
on a side note:
struct opp {
	struct list_head node;

	bool available;
	unsigned long rate;
	unsigned long u_volt;

	struct device_opp *dev_opp;
	struct rcu_head;
};
we could move rcu_head to the top of the struct .. just to avoid
revisiting this at a later point in time *if* struct opp expands..

If we are squashing it, we might consider fixing the kern-doc for
"head"..

Applied to the linux-next branch of linux-pm.git as v3.8 material.

Thanks,
