percpu_counters(): use cpu notifiers

per-cpu counters presently must iterate over all possible CPUs in the
exhaustive percpu_counter_sum().

But it can be much better to only iterate over the presently-online CPUs.  To
do this, we must arrange for an offlined CPU's count to be spilled into the
counter's central count.

We can do this for all percpu_counters in the machine by linking them into a
single global list and walking that list at CPU_DEAD time.

(I hope.  Might have race windows in which the percpu_counter_sum() count is
inaccurate?)
