[GIT PULL] percpu fixes for v4.14-rc3

[Tejun Heo]

Hello, Linus.

Rather important fixes this time.

* The new percpu area allocator had a subtle bug in how it iterates
  the memory regions and could skip viable areas, which led to
  allocation failures for module static percpu variables.  Dennis
  fixed the bug and another non-critical one in stat calculation.

* Mark noticed that the generic implementations of percpu local atomic
  reads aren't properly protected against irqs and there's a (slim)
  chance for split reads on some 32bit systems.  Generic
  implementations are updated to disable irq when read size is larger
  than ulong size.  This may have made some 32bit archs which can do
  atomic local 64bit accesses generate sub-optimal code.  We need to
  find them out and implement arch-specific overrides.

Thanks.
