[PATCH 2/3] mm/page_alloc: convert zone_pcp_update() to use on_each_cpu() instead of stop_machine()

[Cody P Schafer <cody@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

No off-cpu users of the percpu pagesets exist.

zone_pcp_update()'s goal is to adjust the ->high and ->mark members of a
percpu pageset based on a zone's ->managed_pages. We don't need to drain
the entire percpu pageset just to modify these fields. Avoid calling
setup_pageset() (and the draining required to call it) and instead just
set the fields' values.

This does change the behavior of zone_pcp_update() as the percpu
pagesets will not be drained when zone_pcp_update() is called (they will
end up being shrunk, not completely drained, later when a 0-order page
is freed in free_hot_cold_page()).
