percpu-refcount: consistently use plain (non-sched) RCU
percpu_ref_get/put() are using preempt_disable/enable() while percpu_ref_kill() is using plain call_rcu() instead of call_rcu_sched(). This is buggy as grace periods of the two may not match. Fix it by using plain RCU in percpu_ref_get/put(). (I suggested using sched RCU in the first place but there's no actual benefit in doing so unless we're gonna introduce different variants of get/put to be called while preemption is alredy disabled, which we definitely shouldn't.)
