Subject: [PATCH 06/20] ipc/shm: do not use ipc_rcu_free()
Git-commit: 66470b18179f8839a62b4c20ffd3903a4025fe90
Patch-mainline: v4.13-rc1
References: bsc#1050323

Avoid using ipc_rcu_free, since it just re-finds the original structure
pointer.  For the pre-list-init failure path, there is no RCU needed,
since it was just allocated.  It can be directly freed.
