[PATCH 42/42]: ppc64: get rid of per_cpu counters

242-eeh-no-percpu-counters.patch

Remove per-cpu counters from the EEH code.  These statistics counters are 
incremented at a very low-frequency, and the performance gains of per-cpu 
variables are negligable.  By conrast, the counters weren't safe against
cpu gard operations, and its not worth the effeort to make them so (other
than to turn them into plain globals).
