[apparmor] [RFC 2/9] apparmor: Switch labels to percpu refcount in atomic mode

[Neeraj Upadhyay]

In preparation of using percpu refcount for labels,
this patch replaces label kref with percpu refcount.
The percpu ref is initialized to atomic mode, as
using percpu mode, requires tracking ref kill points.
As the atomic counter is in a different cacheline now,
rearrange some of the fields - flags, proxy; to
optimize some of the fast paths for unconfined labels.

In addition to the requirement to cleanup the percpu
ref using percpu_ref_exit() in label destruction path,
other potential impact from this patch could be:

- Increase in memory requirement (for per cpu counters)
  for each label.

- Displacement of aa_label struct members to different
  cacheline, as percpu ref takes 2 pointers space.

- Moving of the atomic counter outside of the cacheline
  of the aa_label struct.
