Good catch, but having it the way it is will be faster with the
possibility of re-entering RCU mode if there is a race during tear down.
Entering RCU mode during tear-down mean that the nodes that are not
already freed would remain for an RCU cycle before being freed.  I don't
think it is worth checking every time this is called for such a low
payoff.  I should probably add a comment about this though.
