const_pcpu_hot is aliased by linker to pcpu_hot, so there is no need
to use DECLARE_PER_CPU_ALIGNED macro. Also, declare const_pcpu_hot
as extern to avoid allocating storage space for the aliased structure.

x86/percpu: Declare const_pcpu_hot as extern const variable
const_pcpu_hot is aliased by linker to pcpu_hot, so there is no need
to use the DECLARE_PER_CPU_ALIGNED() macro. Also, declare const_pcpu_hot
as extern to avoid allocating storage space for the aliased structure.

I looked into this problem a bit, it is triggered by CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y
The problem is, that genksyms does not know the __seg_gs keyword and
simply ignores the symbol.
Running:
make V=1 arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.symtypes
There is NOTHING regarding const_pcpu_hot in the resulting common.symtypes file.
The unpatched source should also fail here due to __seg_gs keyword,
but it magically didn't.
I don't know what to do here.
