[PATCH] Extract the allocpercpu functions from the slab allocator

Browse Source 
The allocpercpu functions __alloc_percpu and __free_percpu() are heavily
using the slab allocator.  However, they are conceptually slab.  This also
simplifies SLOB (at this point slob may be broken in mm.  This should fix
it).
