Konstantin Belousov cbb65b7ec5 i386: Do not ever store to other-CPU counter64 slot.
On CPUs supporting cmpxchg8b, fetch is performed by cmpxchg8b on
corresponding CPU slot, which unconditionally write to the slot.  If
for that slot, the owner CPU increments it, then both CPUs might run
the cmpxchg8b instruction concurrently and this might race and
override the incremental write.  So the counter update would be lost.

Fix it by implementing fetch as IPI and accumulation of result.  It is
acceptable for rare counter64 fetch operation to be more expensive.
