[RFC PATCH 3/3] KVM: Expedite SRCU callbacks when freeing objects during I/O bus registration

[Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>]

Use the recently introduced call_srcu_expedited() when freeing the old I/O
bug during device registration to avoid triggering a non-expedited grace
period.  Delaying the freeing of the object by a full grace period is a
complete non-issue, but the grace period also gets transferred to future
synchronizations, e.g. to the synchronize_srcu_expedited() invocation in
kvm_swap_active_memslots().

For micro-VM use cases, effectively transferring the non-expedited grace
period to memslot updates results in a meaningful delay in overall boot
time.  E.g. with a CONFIG_HZ=100 kernel, the sync triggers a ~20ms delay,
increasing boot times by 15% or more.
