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

At some point the API of call_rcu() changed from three parameters
to two parameters, correct the documentation.
One confusing thing in RCU/listRCU.txt, which is NOT fixed in this patch,
is that no reason or explaination is given for using call_rcu() instead of
the normal synchronize_rcu() call.

Update the RCU documentation to allow for the new synchronize_rcu() and
synchronize_sched() primitives. Fix a few other nits as well.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
