Subject: [RFC PATCH V3 10/16] netback: rework of per-cpu scratch space.

If we allocate large arrays in per-cpu section, multi-page ring
feature is likely to blow up the per-cpu section. So avoid allocating
large arrays, instead we only store pointers to scratch spaces in
per-cpu section.

CPU hotplug event is also taken care of.
