[PATCH 07/18] relay: Use per CPU constructs for the relay channel buffer pointers

akash.goel
2016-08-15T14:36:32Z

From: Akash Goel <akash.goel@intel.com>

relay essentially needs to maintain the per CPU array of channel buffer
pointers but it manually creates that array.
Instead its better to avail the per CPU constructs, provided by the
kernel, to allocate & access the array of pointer to channel buffers.

v2: Include <linux/percpu.h> in relay.h so that it pulls in the percpu
api explicitly. (Chris)
