x86: ensure percpu lpage doesn't consume too much vmalloc space
On extreme configuration (e.g. 32bit 32-way NUMA machine), lpage percpu first chunk allocator can consume too much of vmalloc space. Make it fall back to 4k allocator if the consumption goes over 20%. [ Impact: add sanity check for lpage percpu first chunk allocator ] Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reported-by: Jan Beulich <JBeulich@novell.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
