Subject[rfc 41/45] VM statistics: Use CPU ops
The use of CPU ops here avoids the offset calculations that we used to have
to do with per cpu ops. The result of this patch is that event counters are
coded with a single instruction the following way:

incq %gs:offset(%rip)

Without these patches this was:

mov %gs:0x8,%rdx
mov %eax,0x38(%rsp)
mov xxx(%rip),%eax
mov %eax,0x48(%rsp)
mov varoffset,%rax
incq 0x110(%rax,%rdx,1)
