perf cpumap: Add reference count checking
Enabled when REFCNT_CHECKING is defined. The change adds a memory allocated pointer that is interposed between the reference counted cpu map at a get and freed by a put. The pointer replaces the original perf_cpu_map struct, so use of the perf_cpu_map via APIs remains unchanged. Any use of the cpu map without the API requires two versions, handled via the RC_CHK_ACCESS macro. This change is intended to catch: - use after put: using a cpumap after you have put it will cause a segv. - unbalanced puts: two puts for a get will result in a double free that can be captured and reported by tools like address sanitizer, including with the associated stack traces of allocation and frees. - missing puts: if a put is missing then the get turns into a memory leak that can be reported by leak sanitizer, including the stack trace at the point the get occurs.
