percpu_counter: new function percpu_counter_sum_and_set
As described in
revert "percpu counter: clean up percpu_counter_sum_and_set()"
the new percpu_counter_sum_and_set() is racy against updates to the
cpu-local accumulators on other CPUs. Revert that change.
This means that ext4 will be slow again. But correct.
