    itimers: remove the per-cpu-ish-ness · 490dea45

    Either we bounce once cacheline per cpu per tick, yielding n^2 bounces
    or we just bounce a single..
    
    Also, using per-cpu allocations for the thread-groups complicates the
    per-cpu allocator in that its currently aimed to be a fixed sized
    allocator and the only possible extention to that would be vmap based,
    which is seriously constrained on 32 bit archs.
    
    So making the per-cpu memory requirement depend on the number of
    processes is an issue.
    
    Lastly, it didn't deal with cpu-hotplug, although admittedly that might
    be fixable.
