[PATCH 0/6] percpu: Per cpu code simplification linux-2.6.git

From: travis
Date: Wed Jan 30 2008 - 13:09:59 EST



Patchset to fixup differences between x86.git and base linux-2.6.git

This patchset simplifies the code that arches need to maintain to support
per cpu functionality. Most of the code is moved into arch independent
code. Only a minimal set of definitions is kept for each arch.

Based on latest linux-2.6.git
