ia64: convert to dynamic percpu allocator
Unlike other archs, ia64 reserves space for percpu areas during early memory initialization. These areas occupy a contiguous region indexed by cpu number on contiguous memory model or are grouped by node on discontiguous memory model. As allocation and initialization are done by the arch code, all that setup_per_cpu_areas() needs to do is communicating the determined layout to the percpu allocator. This patch implements setup_per_cpu_areas() for both contig and discontig memory models and drops HAVE_LEGACY_PER_CPU_AREA. Please note that for contig model, the allocation itself is modified only to allocate for possible cpus instead of NR_CPUS. As dynamic percpu allocator can handle non-direct mapping, there's no reason to allocate memory for cpus which aren't possible.
