Currently, k[v]free_rcu() cannot be called in unknown context since it could lead to a deadlock when called in the middle of k[v]free_rcu().
Make users' lives easier by introducing kfree_rcu_nolock() variant, now that kfree_rcu_sheaf() is available on PREEMPT_RT and __kfree_rcu_sheaf() handles unknown context. kfree_rcu_nolock() falls back to the kvfree_rcu batching when sheaves path fails. In most cases, the sheaves path is expected to succeed and it's unnecessary to add complexity to the existing kvfree_rcu batching by teaching it how to handle unknown context. Since defer_kfree_rcu() can be called on caches without sheaves, move deferred_work_barrier() and rcu_barrier() outside the branch in kvfree_rcu_barrier_on_cache().
