Recent improvements in LOCKDEP highlighted a potential A-A deadlock with
pcpu_freelist in NMI:

This is because pcpu_freelist_head.lock is accessed in both NMI and
non-NMI context. Fix this issue by using raw_spin_trylock() in NMI.
Since NMI interrupts non-NMI context, when NMI context tries to lock the
raw_spinlock, non-NMI context of the same CPU may already have locked a
lock and is blocked from unlocking the lock. For a system with N CPUs,
there could be N NMIs at the same time, and they may block N non-NMI
raw_spinlocks. This is tricky for pcpu_freelist_push(), where unlike
_pop(), failing _push() means leaking memory. This issue is more likely to
trigger in non-SMP system.
Fix this issue with an extra list, pcpu_freelist.extralist. The extralist
is primarily used to take _push() when raw_spin_trylock() failed on all
the per CPU lists. It should be empty most of the time. The following
table summarizes the behavior of pcpu_freelist in NMI and non-NMI:
non-NMI pop(): use _lock(); check per CPU lists first;
if all per CPU lists are empty, check extralist;
if extralist is empty, return NULL.
non-NMI push(): use _lock(); only push to per CPU lists.
NMI pop(): use _trylock(); check per CPU lists first;
if all per CPU lists are locked or empty, check extralist;
if extralist is locked or empty, return NULL.
NMI push(): use _trylock(); check per CPU lists first;
if all per CPU lists are locked; try push to extralist;
if extralist is also locked, keep trying on per CPU lists.

Introduce simple percpu_freelist to keep single list of elements
spread across per-cpu singly linked lists.
/* push element into the list */
void pcpu_freelist_push(struct pcpu_freelist *, struct pcpu_freelist_node *);
/* pop element from the list */
struct pcpu_freelist_node *pcpu_freelist_pop(struct pcpu_freelist *);
The object is pushed to the current cpu list.
Pop first trying to get the object from the current cpu list,
if it's empty goes to the neigbour cpu list.
For bpf program usage pattern the collision rate is very low,
since programs push and pop the objects typically on the same cpu.
