Subject: [PATCH UPDATED 1/2] x86, percpu: Optimize this_cpu_ptr
Date: Thu, 09 Sep 2010 18:19:13 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4C890901.4050403@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1283859670-6687-2-git-send-email-brgerst@gmail.com>

Allow arches to implement __this_cpu_ptr, and provide an x86 version.

Before:
	movq $foo, %rax
	movq %gs:this_cpu_off, %rdx
	addq %rdx, %rax

After:
	movq $foo, %rax
	addq %gs:this_cpu_off, %rax

The benefit is doing it in one less instruction and not clobbering
a temporary register.

tj: beefed up the comment a bit and renamed in-macro temp variable to
    match neighboring macros.

Applied both patches to the following branch.  I updated the first
patch slightly.

Thank you.
