fork: Only cache the VMAP stack in finish_task_switch()

The task stack could be deallocated later, but for fork()/exec() kind of
workloads (say a shell script executing several commands) it is important
that the stack is released in finish_task_switch() so that in VMAP_STACK
case it can be cached and reused in the new task.

For PREEMPT_RT it would be good if the wake-up in vfree_atomic() could
be avoided in the scheduling path. Far worse are the other
free_thread_stack() implementations which invoke __free_pages()/
kmem_cache_free() with disabled preemption.

Cache the stack in free_thread_stack() in the VMAP_STACK case and
RCU-delay the free path otherwise. Free the stack in the RCU callback.
In the VMAP_STACK case this is another opportunity to fill the cache.
