percpu: acquire pcpu_lock when updating pcpu_nr_empty_pop_pages
Update to pcpu_nr_empty_pop_pages in pcpu_alloc() is currently done without holding pcpu_lock. This can lead to bad updates to the variable. Add missing lock calls. Fixes: b539b87fed37 ("percpu: implmeent pcpu_nr_empty_pop_pages and chunk->nr_populated") Signed-off-by: Tahsin Erdogan <tahsin@google.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v3.18+
