Subject: [PATCH] lglock: make lg_lock_global() actually lock globally

lglock: make lg_lock_global() actually lock globally

lg_lock_global() currently only acquires spinlocks for online CPUs, but
it's meant to lock all possible CPUs.  At Nick's suggestion, change
for_each_online_cpu() to for_each_possible_cpu() to get the expected
behavior.
