It used to be the case that PAGE_SIZE has type `unsigned' on some
architectures and `unsigned long' on others.  I don't know if that was
fixed - probably not.

A dump_stack() here would be useful.

afacit nobody has answered your "is num_possible_cpus() ever a lot
larger than num_online_cpus()" question.

It is fairly important.

This macro generates real code.  It is misleading to pretend that it is
a compile-time constant.  Suggest that it be converted to a plain old C
function.

hm.  Why do these exist?

Again, they look like compile-time constants, but aren't.

So the allocator doesn't internally record the size of each hunk?

This function can be called under spinlock if new_size>PAGE_SIZE and
the kernel won't (I think) warn.  If new_size<=PAGE_SIZE, the kernel
will warn.

Methinks vmalloc() should have a might_sleep().  Dunno.

When pcpu_chunk.map gets documented, please also explain the
significance of negative entries in there.

A designed decision has been made to not permit the caller to specify
the allocation mode?

Usually a mistake.  Probably appropriate in this case.  Should be
mentioned up-front and discussed a bit.

hm.  Why do we do this?  Perhaps emitting this warning:

OK, so we do GFP_KERNEL allocations under this lock, so vast amounts of
kernel code (filesystems, page reclaim, block/io) are not allowed to do
per-cpu allocations.

I doubt if there's a problem with that, but it's worth pointing out.

It would be cleaner to do
