[GIT PULL] percpu fix for v4.10-rc6

[Tejun Heo]

Hello,

Douglas found and fixed a ref leak bug in percpu_ref_tryget[_live]().
The bug is caused by storing the return value of
atomic_long_inc_not_zero() into an int temp variable before returning
it as a bool.  The interim cast to int loses the upper bits and can
lead to false negatives.  As percpu_ref uses a high bit to mark a
draining counter, this can happen relatively easily.  Fixed by using
bool for the temp variable.

Thanks.
