percpu_counter: new function percpu_counter_sum_and_set
Delayed allocation need to check free blocks at every write time. percpu_counter_read_positive() is not quit accurate. delayed allocation need a more accurate accounting, but using percpu_counter_sum_positive() is frequently is quite expensive. This patch added a new function to update center counter when sum per-cpu counter, to increase the accurate rate for next percpu_counter_read() and require less calling expensive percpu_counter_sum().
