[PATCH] powerpc: get rid of per_cpu EEH 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 contrast, the counters weren't
safe against cpu off/online operations, and its not worth the effort
to make them so (other than to turn them into plain globals).
