padata: Avoid nested calls to cpus_read_lock() in pcrypt_init_padata()
pcrypt_init_padata()
cpus_read_lock()
padata_alloc_possible()
padata_alloc()
cpus_read_lock()
The nested call to cpus_read_lock() works with the current implementation,
but prevents the conversion to a percpu rwsem.
The other caller of padata_alloc_possible() is pcrypt_init_padata() which
calls from a cpus_read_lock() protected region as well.
Remove the cpus_read_lock() call in padata_alloc() and document the
calling convention.
