It's *still* > fixable, but we need a different primitive for that one. NACKed, better patch appended, which makes &per_cpu__foo a real pointer without asm hacks. Actually, all of this has been discussed on lkml; here is the latest variant that makes everybody more or less happy, at least there are no objections from percpu folks and Martin (similar fix should work for s390 as well). Ivan. --- alpha: fix for static percpu variables Work around 32-bit GP-relative addressing of local per-cpu variables in modules. This is needed to make the dynamic per-cpu allocator work on alpha.
