percpu: kill percpu_alloc() and friends
Impact: kill unused functions
percpu_alloc() and its friends never saw much action. It was supposed
to replace the cpu-mask unaware __alloc_percpu() but it never happened
and in fact __percpu_alloc_mask() itself never really grew proper
up/down handling interface either (no exported interface for
populate/depopulate).
percpu allocation is about to go through major reimplementation and
there's no reason to carry this unused interface around. Replace it
with __alloc_percpu() and free_percpu().
