percpu: fix synchronization between chunk->map_extend_work and chunk destruction
[ Upstream commit 4f996e23 ] Atomic allocations can trigger async map extensions which is serviced by chunk->map_extend_work. pcpu_balance_work which is responsible for destroying idle chunks wasn't synchronizing properly against chunk->map_extend_work and may end up freeing the chunk while the work item is still in flight. This patch fixes the bug by rolling async map extension operations into pcpu_balance_work.
