I don't see such an accessor, but if there were, what would happen when
the caller goes on to dereference that nothing?
There is an accessor for shared_proc specifically (in the spinlock code)
-- not that it would be much help on booke to just compile away that
check and always select one of the pseries state tables over the other.
