Subject: [PATCH v3 1/7] rust: percpu: introduce a rust API for per-CPU
 variables

Per-CPU variables are an important tool for reducing lock contention,
especially in systems with many processors. They also provide a
convenient way to handle data that are logically associated with a
particular CPU (e.g., the currently running task). Therefore, add a Rust
API to make use of per-CPU variables.

Add a `CpuGuard` type that disables preemption for its lifetime. Add a
`PerCpuAllocation` type used to track dynamic allocations. Add a
`define_per_cpu!` macro to create static per-CPU allocations. Add
`DynamicPerCpu` and `StaticPerCpu` to provide a high-level API. Add a
`PerCpu` trait to unify the dynamic and static cases.
