[PATCH -V3 01/11] percpu_counters: make fbc->count read atomic on 32 bit architecture

["Aneesh Kumar K.V" <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

fbc->count is of type s64. The change was introduced by
0216bfcffe424a5473daa4da47440881b36c1f4 which changed the type
from long to s64. Moving to s64 also means on 32 bit architectures
we can get wrong values on fbc->count. Since fbc->count is read
more frequently and updated rarely use seqlocks. This should
reduce the impact of locking in the read path for 32bit arch.
