The previous commit moved from O(n) to O(1) for removal, but in the
process introduced an additional pointer member to a struct that
increased the size from 60 to 68 bytes, putting nodes in the 128-byte
slab. With deployed systems having as many as 2 million nodes, this
represents a significant doubling in memory usage (128 MiB -> 256 MiB).
Fix this by using our own kmem_cache, that's sized exactly right. This
also makes wireguard's memory usage more transparent in tools like
slabtop and /proc/slabinfo.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
