Merge branch 'for-4.14-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu
Pull percpu fixes from Tejun Heo: "Rather important fixes this time. - The new percpu area allocator had a subtle bug in how it iterates the memory regions and could skip viable areas, which led to allocation failures for module static percpu variables. Dennis fixed the bug and another non-critical one in stat calculation. - Mark noticed that the generic implementations of percpu local atomic reads aren't properly protected against irqs and there's a (slim) chance for split reads on some 32bit systems. Generic implementations are updated to disable irq when read size is larger than ulong size. This may have made some 32bit archs which can do atomic local 64bit accesses generate sub-optimal code. We need to find them out and implement arch-specific overrides" * 'for-4.14-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu: percpu: fix iteration to prevent skipping over block percpu: fix starting offset for chunk statistics traversal percpu: make this_cpu_generic_read() atomic w.r.t. interrupts
