Merge branch 'for-4.11-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu

Pull percpu fixes from Tejun Heo:

 - the allocation path was updating pcpu_nr_empty_pop_pages without the
   required locking which can lead to incorrect handling of empty chunks
   (e.g. keeping too many around), which is buggy but shouldn't lead to
   critical failures. Fixed by adding the locking

 - a trivial patch to drop an unused param from pcpu_get_pages()

* 'for-4.11-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu:
  percpu: remove unused chunk_alloc parameter from pcpu_get_pages()
  percpu: acquire pcpu_lock when updating pcpu_nr_empty_pop_pages
