[cpuops inc_return V1 4/9] vmstat: Use this_cpu_inc_return for vm statistics

From: Christoph Lameter
Date: Mon Dec 06 2010 - 12:41:29 EST


this_cpu_inc_return() saves us a memory access there. Code
size does not change.

V1->V2:
- Fixed the location of the __per_cpu pointer attributes
- Sparse checked
V2->V3:
- Move fixes to __percpu attribute usage to earlier patch
