Merge branch 'for-3.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu

Pull percpu changes from Tejun Heo:
 "The percpu allocation is now popular enough for the extremely naive
  range allocator to cause scalability issues.

  The existing allocator linearly scanned the allocation map on both
  alloc and free without making use of hint or anything.  Al
  reimplemented the range allocator so that it can use binary search
  instead of linear scan during free and alloc path uses simple hinting
  to avoid scanning in common cases.  Combined, the new allocator
  resolves the scalability issue percpu allocator was showing during
  container benchmark workload"
