rcu: simplify the usage of percpu data
&percpu_data is compatible with allocated percpu data.
And we use it and remove the "->rda[NR_CPUS]" array, saving significant
storage on systems with large numbers of CPUs. This does add an additional
level of indirection and thus an additional cache line referenced, but
because ->rda is not used on the read side, this is OK.
