this_cpu: Use this_cpu operations in RCU RCU does not do dynamic allocations but it increments per cpu variables a lot. These instructions results in a move to a register and then back to memory. This patch will make it use the inc/dec instructions on x86 that do not need a register. Acked-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Paul E.
