synchronize_rcu blocks the caller of opp_enable/disbale for a complete grace period. This blocking duration prevents any intensive use of the functions. Replace synchronize_rcu by call_rcu which will call our function for freeing the old opp element.
The duration of opp_enable and opp_disable will be no more dependant of the grace period.
