Since tracepoints use RCU for protection, they must not be called on
offline cpus.  trace_mm_page_pcpu_drain can be called on an offline cpu
in this scenario caught by LOCKDEP:

     ===============================
     [ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ]
     4.1.0-rc1+ #9 Not tainted
     -------------------------------
     include/trace/events/kmem.h:265 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

    other info that might help us debug this:

    RCU used illegally from offline CPU!
    rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1
     1 lock held by swapper/5/0:
      #0:  (&(&zone->lock)->rlock){..-...}, at: [<c0000000002073b0>] .free_pcppages_bulk+0x70/0x920

       .start_secondary+0x36c/0x3a0
       start_secondary_prolog+0x10/0x14

Fix this by converting mm_page_pcpu_drain trace point into
TRACE_EVENT_CONDITION where condition is cpu_online(smp_processor_id())
