There is a race condition in store_rps_map that allows jump label
count in rps_needed to go below zero. This can happen when
concurrently attempting to set and a clear map.
Scenario:
1. rps_needed count is zero
2. New map is assigned by setting thread, but rps_needed count _not_ yet
incremented (rps_needed count still zero)
2. Map is cleared by second thread, old_map set to that just assigned
3. Second thread performs static_key_slow_dec, rps_needed count now goes
negative
Fix is to increment or decrement rps_needed under the spinlock.
