[PATCH tip/core/rcu 3/4] RCU: Update docs to include kfree_rcu()

["Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

From: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

Mention kfree_rcu() in the call_rcu() section.  Additionally fix the
example code for list replacement that used the wrong structure element.
