percpu: move region iterations out of pcpu_[de]populate_chunk()
Previously, pcpu_[de]populate_chunk() were called with the range which may contain multiple target regions in it and pcpu_[de]populate_chunk() iterated over the regions. This has the benefit of batching up cache flushes for all the regions; however, we're planning to add more bookkeeping logic around [de]population to support atomic allocations and this delegation of iterations gets in the way. This patch moves the region iterations out of pcpu_[de]populate_chunk() into its callers - pcpu_alloc() and pcpu_reclaim() - so that we can later add logic to track more states around them. This change may make cache and tlb flushes more frequent but multi-region [de]populations are rare anyway and if this actually becomes a problem, it's not difficult to factor out cache flushes as separate callbacks which are directly invoked from percpu.c.
