Introduce free_pages_nolock() that can free pages without taking locks. It relies on trylock and can be called from any context. Since spin_trylock() cannot be used in PREEMPT_RT from hard IRQ or NMI it uses lockless link list to stash the pages which will be freed by subsequent free_pages() from good context. Do not use llist unconditionally. BPF maps continuously allocate/free, so we cannot unconditionally delay the freeing to llist. When the memory becomes free make it available to the kernel and BPF users right away if possible, and fallback to llist as the last resort.

Linux kernel
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use make htmldocs or
make pdfdocs. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
