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 set of minimal definitions is kept for each arch. The patch also unifies the x86 arch so that there is only a single asm-x86/percpu.h -- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
