NFSD: Eliminate percpu counter contention in reply cache statistics
Each RPC passes through nfsd_cache_lookup(), which increments one of nfsd_stats_rc_hits_inc(), nfsd_stats_rc_misses_inc(), or nfsd_stats_rc_nocache_inc(). These helpers update per-net-namespace percpu_counters with percpu_counter_inc(), which applies the default batch threshold of max(32, 2*nr_cpus). Once a CPU's local delta reaches that threshold, the update folds into the shared counter under its global spinlock. On a busy multi-CPU server this produces lock traffic on a counter cacheline shared across all CPUs, growing with the request rate. Switch to percpu_counter_add_local(fbc, 1), which batches with INT_MAX so that increments always remain on the per-CPU fast path. This matches the treatment already applied to the IO byte and DRC memory counters. All readers of these counters use percpu_counter_sum_positive(), which sums the per-CPU deltas under the global lock, so read accuracy is unaffected.
