Introduce QPW for per-cpu operations

The problem:
Some places in the kernel implement a parallel programming strategy consisting on local_locks() for most of the work, and some rare remote operations are scheduled on target cpu. This keeps cache bouncing low since cacheline tends to be mostly local, and avoids the cost of locks in non-RT kernels, even though the very few remote operations will be expensive due to scheduling overhead.

On the other hand, for RT workloads this can represent a problem: getting an important workload scheduled out to deal with remote requests is sure to introduce unexpected deadline misses.

The idea:
Currently with PREEMPT_RT=y, local_locks() become per-cpu spinlocks. In this case, instead of scheduling work on a remote cpu, it should be safe to grab that remote cpu's per-cpu spinlock and run the required work locally. That major cost, which is un/locking in every local function, already happens in PREEMPT_RT.

Also, there is no need to worry about extra cache bouncing:
The cacheline invalidation already happens due to schedule_work_on().

This will avoid schedule_work_on(), and thus avoid scheduling-out an RT workload.

Proposed solution:
A new interface called Queue PerCPU Work (QPW), which should replace Work Queue in the above mentioned use case.

If PREEMPT_RT=n this interfaces just wraps the current local_locks + WorkQueue behavior, so no expected change in runtime.

If PREEMPT_RT=y, or CONFIG_QPW=y, queue_percpu_work_on(cpu,...) will lock that cpu's per-cpu structure and perform work on it locally. This is possible because on functions that can be used for performing remote work on remote per-cpu structures, the local_lock (which is already a this_cpu spinlock()), will be replaced by a qpw_spinlock(), which is able to get the per_cpu spinlock() for the cpu passed as parameter.

RFC->v1:

- Introduce CONFIG_QPW and qpw= kernel boot option to enable remote spinlocking and execution even on !CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT kernels (Leonardo Bras).
- Move buffer_head draining to separate workqueue (Marcelo Tosatti).
- Convert mlock per-CPU page lists to QPW (Marcelo Tosatti).
- Drop memcontrol convertion (as isolated CPUs are not targets of queue_work_on anymore).
- Rebase SLUB against Vlastimil's slab/next.
- Add basic document for QPW (Waiman Long).

The following testcase triggers lru_add_drain_all on an isolated CPU (that does sys_write to a file before entering its realtime loop).

/*
* Simulates a low latency loop program that is interrupted
* due to lru_add_drain_all. To trigger lru_add_drain_all, run:
*
* blockdev --flushbufs /dev/sdX
