Static variable 'purge_ndoes' is defined in global scope, while it's
only used in function __purge_vmap_area_lazy(). It mainly serves to
avoid memory allocation repeatedly, especially when NR_CPUS is big.
While a local static variable can also satisfy the demand, and can
improve code readibility. Hence move its definition into
__purge_vmap_area_lazy().
