[Linux-ia64] Some Modules fail w/ unresolved cpu_info__per_cpu

["Lee, Jung-Ik" <jung-ik.lee@intel.com>]

On 2.5.39, 
it fails to insmod some modules that refers to "cpu_info__per_cpu".
That global IS DEFINE_PER_CPU'd, DECLARE_PER_CPU'd and is in System.map but
for some reason it fails to resolve.
Have you guys seen this ?

thanks
J.I.

Elilo already knows how to find memory, as long as you either use
the "relocatable" keyword in elilo.conf, or the "-r" command-line
option to let it know that it is OK to relocate.

Using this elilo option means that the changes I provided for
vmlinux.ld.S can be very slightly simplified, it isn't necessary
to define BASE_KVADDR as "KERNEL_START + KERNEL_TR_PAGE_SIZE", you
can just use:

#define BASE_KVADDR	KERNEL_START
