Subject: [PATCH 04/21] Generic percpu refcounting

This implements a refcount with similar semantics to
atomic_get()/atomic_dec_and_test() - but percpu.

It also implements two stage shutdown, as we need it to tear down the
percpu counts.  Before dropping the initial refcount, you must call
percpu_ref_kill(); this puts the refcount in "shutting down mode" and
switches back to a single atomic refcount with the appropriate barriers
(synchronize_rcu()).

It's also legal to call percpu_ref_kill() multiple times - it only returns
true once, so callers don't have to reimplement shutdown synchronization.

+/*
+ * Dynamic percpu refcounts:
+ * (C) 2012 Google, Inc.
+ * Author: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@...gle.com>
+ *
+ * This implements a refcount with similar semantics to atomic_t - atomic_inc(),
+ * atomic_dec_and_test() - but percpu.
+ *
+ * There's one important difference between percpu refs and normal atomic_t
+ * refcounts; you have to keep track of your initial refcount, and then when you
+ * start shutting down you call percpu_ref_kill() _before_ dropping the initial
+ * refcount.
+ *
+ * Before you call percpu_ref_kill(), percpu_ref_put() does not check for the
+ * refcount hitting 0 - it can't, if it was in percpu mode. percpu_ref_kill()
+ * puts the ref back in single atomic_t mode, collecting the per cpu refs and
+ * issuing the appropriate barriers, and then marks the ref as shutting down so
+ * that percpu_ref_put() will check for the ref hitting 0.  After it returns,
+ * it's safe to drop the initial ref.
+ *
+ * USAGE:
+ *
+ * See fs/aio.c for some example usage; it's used there for struct kioctx, which
+ * is created when userspaces calls io_setup(), and destroyed when userspace
+ * calls io_destroy() or the process exits.
+ *
+ * In the aio code, kill_ioctx() is called when we wish to destroy a kioctx; it
+ * calls percpu_ref_kill(), then hlist_del_rcu() and sychronize_rcu() to remove
+ * the kioctx from the proccess's list of kioctxs - after that, there can't be
+ * any new users of the kioctx (from lookup_ioctx()) and it's then safe to drop
+ * the initial ref with percpu_ref_put().
+ *
+ * Code that does a two stage shutdown like this often needs some kind of
+ * explicit synchronization to ensure the initial refcount can only be dropped
+ * once - percpu_ref_kill() does this for you, it returns true once and false if
+ * someone else already called it. The aio code uses it this way, but it's not
+ * necessary if the code has some other mechanism to synchronize teardown.
+ * around.
