percpu-refcount: fix reference leak during percpu-atomic transition

percpu_ref_tryget() and percpu_ref_tryget_live() should return
"true" IFF they acquire a reference. But the return value from
atomic_long_inc_not_zero() is a long and may have high bits set,
e.g. PERCPU_COUNT_BIAS, and the return value of the tryget routines
is bool so the reference may actually be acquired but the routines
return "false" which results in a reference leak since the caller
assumes it does not need to do a corresponding percpu_ref_put().

This was seen when performing CPU hotplug during I/O, as hangs in
blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait where percpu_ref_kill (blk_mq_freeze_queue_start)
raced with percpu_ref_tryget (blk_mq_timeout_work).
Sample stack trace:

Examination of the queue showed a single reference (no PERCPU_COUNT_BIAS,
and __PERCPU_REF_DEAD, __PERCPU_REF_ATOMIC set) and no requests.
However, conditions at the time of the race are count of PERCPU_COUNT_BIAS + 0
and __PERCPU_REF_DEAD and __PERCPU_REF_ATOMIC set.

The fix is to make the tryget routines use an actual boolean internally instead
of the atomic long result truncated to a int.

	  Say Y here if you want to build support for the IrLAN protocol.
	  To compile it as a module, choose M here: the module will be called
	  irlan.  IrLAN emulates an Ethernet and makes it possible to put up
	  a wireless LAN using infrared beams.

	  The IrLAN protocol can be used to talk with infrared access points
	  like the HP NetbeamIR, or the ESI JetEye NET.  You can also connect
	  to another Linux machine running the IrLAN protocol for ad-hoc
	  networking!
