[PATCH bpf-next] bpf: Initialize same number of free nodes for each pcpu_freelist

From: Xu Kuohai

From: Xu Kuohai <xukuohai@xxxxxxxxxx>

pcpu_freelist_populate() initializes nr_elems / num_possible_cpus() + 1
free nodes for each CPU except the last initialized CPU, always making
the last CPU get fewer free nodes. For example, when nr_elems == 256
and num_possible_cpus() == 32, if CPU 0 is the current cpu, CPU 0~27
each gets 9 free nodes, CPU 28 gets 4 free nodes, CPU 29~31 get 0 free
nodes, while in fact each CPU should get 8 nodes equally.

This patch initializes nr_elems / num_possible_cpus() free nodes for each
CPU firstly, and then allocates the remaining free nodes by one for each
CPU until no free nodes left.
