Can we name this pcpu_alloc_size(). A few other functions are
exposed under pcpu_* so it's a bit easier to keep track of.

Now that percpu variables are floating around more commonly, I think we
or I need to add more validation guards so it's easier to
debug bogus/stale pointers. Potentially like a static_key or Kconfig so
that we take the lock and `test_bit()`.

Nit: can you please reflow `bit_off + 1` to the next line. I know we
dropped the line requirement, but percpu.c almost completely still
follows it.
