    percpu: remove rbtree and use page->index instead · e1b9aa3f

    Impact: use page->index for addr to chunk mapping instead of dedicated rbtree
    
    The rbtree is used to determine the chunk from the virtual address.
    However, we can already determine the page struct from a virtual
    address and there are several unused fields in page struct used by
    vmalloc.  Use the index field to store a pointer to the chunk. Then
    there is no need anymore for an rbtree.
    
    tj: * s/(set|get)_chunk/pcpu_\1_page_chunk/
    
        * Drop inline from the above two functions and moved them upwards
          so that they are with other simple helpers.
    
        * Initial pages might not (actually most of the time don't) live
          in the vmalloc area.  With the previous patch to manually
          reverse-map both first chunks, this is no longer an issue.
          Removed pcpu_set_chunk() call on initial pages.
