[PATCH 24/36] net,rcu: convert call_rcu(net_generic_release) to kfree_rcu()

[PATCH 24/36] net,rcu: convert call_rcu(net_generic_release) to kfree_rcu()

[Lai Jiangshan]

The rcu callback net_generic_release() just calls a kfree(),
so we use kfree_rcu() instead of the call_rcu(net_generic_release).
