Merge branch 'for-3.18-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu

Pull percpu fix from Tejun Heo:
 "This contains one patch to fix a race condition which can lead to
  percpu_ref using a percpu pointer which is corrupted with a set DEAD
  bit.  The bug was introduced while separating out the ATOMIC mode flag
  from the DEAD flag.  The fix is pretty straight forward.

  I just committed the patch to the percpu tree but am sending out the
  pull request early as I'll be on vacation for a week.  The patch
  should be fairly safe and while the latency will be higher I'll be
  checking emails"
