eventfs: Free all of the eventfs_inode after RCU
The freeing of eventfs_inode via a kfree_rcu() callback. But the content of the eventfs_inode was being freed after the last kref. This is dangerous, as changes are being made that can access the content of an eventfs_inode from an RCU loop. Instead of using kfree_rcu() use call_rcu() that calls a function to do all the freeing of the eventfs_inode after a RCU grace period has expired.
