grep --ignore-case --exclude-dir=".git" --recursive this_cpu_ptr *.c
ip_input.c:             struct ip_rt_acct *st = this_cpu_ptr(ip_rt_acct);
ip_vti.c:       tstats = this_cpu_ptr(dev->tstats);
route.c:                p = (struct rtable **)__this_cpu_ptr(nh->nh_pcpu_rth_output);
route.c:                        prth = __this_cpu_ptr(nh->nh_pcpu_rth_output);
tcp.c:          return __this_cpu_ptr(p);

Is it ok for ip_vti.c and ip_input.c to use this_cpu_ptr?

Thanks
Joe
