Subject: [PATCH 04/08] percpu -v2 asm-generic/percpu.h
Date: Fri, 14 Apr 2006 23:10:49 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1145070649.27407.31.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
Change the per_cpu setup in asm-generic/percpu.h
This is the main magic to use the per_cpu variable offsets
instead of one global one.
