eventfs: Remove "is_freed" union with rcu head
The eventfs_inode->is_freed was a union with the rcu_head with the assumption that when it was on the srcu list the head would contain a pointer which would make "is_freed" true. But that was a wrong assumption as the rcu head is a single link list where the last element is NULL. Instead, split the nr_entries integer so that "is_freed" is one bit and the nr_entries is the next 31 bits. As there shouldn't be more than 10 (currently there's at most 5 to 7 depending on the config), this should not be a problem.
