I don't know, u32 filter has literally same code:

                for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) {
                        int i;
                        struct tc_u32_pcnt *pf = per_cpu_ptr(n->pf, cpu);

                        gpf->rcnt += pf->rcnt;
                        gpf->rhit += pf->rhit;
                        for (i = 0; i < n->sel.nkeys; i++)
                                gpf->kcnts[i] += pf->kcnts[i];
                }

which has been there for years...
