x86: add embedding percpu first chunk allocator

Impact: add better first percpu allocation for !NUMA

On !NUMA, we can simply allocate contiguous memory and use it for the
first chunk without mapping it into vmalloc area.  As the memory area
is covered by the large page physical memory mapping, it allows the
dynamic perpcu allocator to not add any TLB overhead for the static
percpu area and whatever falls into the first chunk and the
implementation is very simple too.
