Extend bpf_mem_alloc to cache free list of fixed size per-cpu allocations.
Once such cache is created bpf_mem_cache_alloc() will return per-cpu objects.
bpf_mem_cache_free() will free them back into global per-cpu pool after
observing RCU grace period.
per-cpu flavor of bpf_mem_alloc is going to be used by per-cpu hash maps.
The free list cache consists of tuples { llist_node, per-cpu pointer }
Unlike alloc_percpu() that returns per-cpu pointer
the bpf_mem_cache_alloc() returns a pointer to per-cpu pointer and
bpf_mem_cache_free() expects to receive it back.
