4.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hannes Frederic Sowa <han...@stressinduktion.org>

[ Upstream commit 3036facbb7be3a169e35be3b271162b0fa564a2d ]

fou->udp_offloads is managed by RCU. As it is actually included inside
the fou sockets, we cannot let the memory go out of scope before a grace
period. We either can synchronize_rcu or switch over to kfree_rcu to
manage the sockets. kfree_rcu seems appropriate as it is used by vxlan
and geneve.
