Christoph Lameter e1783a240f module: Use this_cpu_xx to dynamically allocate counters

Use cpu ops to deal with the per cpu data instead of a local_t. Reduces memory
requirements, cache footprint and decreases cycle counts.

The this_cpu_xx operations are also used for !SMP mode. Otherwise we could
not drop the use of __module_ref_addr() which would make per cpu data handling
complicated. this_cpu_xx operations have their own fallback for !SMP.

V8-V9:
- Leave include asm/module.h since ringbuffer.c depends on it. Nothing else
  does though. Another patch will deal with that.
- Remove spurious free.
