fou: clean up socket with kfree_rcu
[ 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.
