From: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: aio: percpu reqs_available

See the previous patch ("aio: reqs_active -> reqs_available") for why we
want to do this - this basically implements a per cpu allocator for
reqs_available that doesn't actually allocate anything.

Note that we need to increase the size of the ringbuffer we allocate,
since a single thread won't necessarily be able to use all the
reqs_available slots - some (up to about half) might be on other per cpu
lists, unavailable for the current thread.

We size the ringbuffer based on the nr_events userspace passed to
io_setup(), so this is a slight behaviour change - but nr_events wasn't
being used as a hard limit before, it was being rounded up to the next
page before so this doesn't change the actual semantics.
