[PATCH 06/10] percpu: remove unit_size power-of-2 restriction

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Mon Feb 23 2009 - 22:14:11 EST


Impact: allow unit_size to be arbitrary multiple of PAGE_SIZE

In dynamic percpu allocator, there is no reason the unit size should
be power of two. Remove the restriction.

As non-power-of-two unit size means that empty chunks fall into the
same slot index as lightly occupied chunks which is bad for reclaming.
Reserve an extra slot for empty chunks.
