Thanks for your reviewing.

Yes, dyn_size can't be zero. But in pcpu_setup_first_chunk(), the local
variable dyn_size could be zero caused by below code:

if (ai->reserved_size) {
                schunk->free_size = ai->reserved_size;
                pcpu_reserved_chunk = schunk;
                pcpu_reserved_chunk_limit = ai->static_size +
ai->reserved_size;
        } else {
                schunk->free_size = dyn_size;
                dyn_size = 0;                   /* dynamic area covered
*/
        }

So if no reserved_size dyn_size is assigned to zero, and is checked to
see if dchunk need be created in below code:
	/* init dynamic chunk if necessary */
        if (dyn_size) {
		...
	}

I think v1 patch is a little ugly, so made a v2 like this:

Subject: [PATCH] perpuc: check pcpu_first_chunk and pcpu_reserved_chunk to
 avoid handling them twice

In pcpu_setup_first_chunk() pcpu_reserved_chunk is assigned to point to
static chunk. While pcpu_first_chunk is got from below code:

	pcpu_first_chunk = dchunk ?: schunk;

Then it could point to static chunk too if dynamic chunk doesn't exist.

In this patch add a new helper function percpu_install_map() to replace
the old map of chunk with newly allocated map. Then call percpu_install_map()
separately in percpu_init_late() if pcpu_first_chunk and pcpu_reserved_chunk
exist.
