Sebastian Andrzej Siewior 672318331b openvswitch: Use nested-BH locking for ovs_pcpu_storage ...

ovs_pcpu_storage is a per-CPU variable and relies on disabled BH for its
locking. Without per-CPU locking in local_bh_disable() on PREEMPT_RT
this data structure requires explicit locking.
The data structure can be referenced recursive and there is a recursion
counter to avoid too many recursions.

Add a local_lock_t to the data structure and use
local_lock_nested_bh() for locking. Add an owner of the struct which is
the current task and acquire the lock only if the structure is not owned
by the current task.
