Merge branch 'for-5.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dennis/percpu
Pull percpu updates from Dennis Zhou: - scan hint update which helps address performance issues with heavily fragmented blocks - lockdep fix when freeing an allocation causes balance work to be scheduled * 'for-5.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dennis/percpu: percpu: remove spurious lock dependency between percpu and sched percpu: use chunk scan_hint to skip some scanning percpu: convert chunk hints to be based on pcpu_block_md percpu: make pcpu_block_md generic percpu: use block scan_hint to only scan forward percpu: remember largest area skipped during allocation percpu: add block level scan_hint percpu: set PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_SIZE to PAGE_SIZE percpu: relegate chunks unusable when failing small allocations percpu: manage chunks based on contig_bits instead of free_bytes percpu: introduce helper to determine if two regions overlap percpu: do not search past bitmap when allocating an area percpu: update free path with correct new free region
