Add irq protection in the percpu-counters cpu-hotplug-callback path
Some of the per-cpu counters and thus their locks are accessed from IRQ contexts. This can cause a deadlock if it interrupts a cpu-offline thread which is transferring a dead-cpu's counts to the global counter. Add appropriate IRQ protection in the cpu-hotplug callback path.
