drain_all_stock_async tries to optimize a work to be done on the work
queue by excluding any work for the current CPU because it assumes that
the context we are called from already tried to charge from that cache
and it's failed so it must be empty already.

While the assumption is correct we can optimize it even more by checking
the current number of pages in the cache.  This will also reduce a work
on other CPUs with an empty stock.

For the current CPU we can simply call drain_local_stock rather than
deferring it to the work queue.
