Tejun Heo a4244454df percpu-refcount: use RCU-sched insted of normal RCU
percpu-refcount was incorrectly using preempt_disable/enable() for RCU
critical sections against call_rcu().  6a24474da8 ("percpu-refcount:
consistently use plain (non-sched) RCU") fixed it by converting the
preepmtion operations with rcu_read_[un]lock() citing that there isn't
any advantage in using sched-RCU over using the usual one; however,
rcu_read_[un]lock() for the preemptible RCU implementation -
CONFIG_TREE_PREEMPT_RCU, chosen when CONFIG_PREEMPT - are slightly
more expensive than preempt_disable/enable().

In a contrived microbench which repeats the followings,

 - percpu_ref_get()
 - copy 32 bytes of data into percpu buffer
 - percpu_put_get()
 - copy 32 bytes of data into percpu buffer

rcu_read_[un]lock() used in percpu_ref_get/put() makes it go slower by
about 15% when compared to using sched-RCU.

As the RCU critical sections are extremely short, using sched-RCU
shouldn't have any latency implications.  Convert to RCU-sched.

/*
* Percpu refcounts:
* (C) 2012 Google, Inc.
* Author: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.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.
*
* The refcount will have a range of 0 to ((1U << 31) - 1), i.e. one bit less
* than an atomic_t - this is because of the way shutdown works, see
* percpu_ref_kill()/PCPU_COUNT_BIAS.
*
* 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.
