Maybe... I don't know.

Yeah, that's exactly the reason why x86 has those specific ops in the
first place because if they can be made single instruction, there's no
need to mess with preemption thus reducing the cost of the operations
greatly but for generic implementation it should be guarded by
preemption disable/enable to guarantee correct operation to maintain
the same/correct semantics (being preempted inbetween the load and
store instructions implementing += can be disastrous for example).

>From the comment I added on top of the generic ops....

/*
 * Optional methods for optimized non-lvalue per-cpu variable access.
 *
 * @var can be a percpu variable or a field of it and its size should
 * equal char, int or long.  percpu_read() evaluates to a lvalue and
 * all others to void.
 *
 * These operations are guaranteed to be atomic w.r.t. preemption.
 * The generic versions use plain get/put_cpu_var().  Archs are
 * encouraged to implement single-instruction alternatives which don't
 * require preemption protection.
 */

And the updated patch looks like...

From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@...e.hu>
Subject: percpu: add optimized generic percpu accessors

It is an optimization and a cleanup, and adds the following new
generic percpu methods:

  percpu_read()
  percpu_write()
  percpu_add()
  percpu_sub()
  percpu_or() 
  percpu_xor()

and implements support for them on x86. (other architectures will fall
back to a default implementation)

The advantage is that for example to read a local percpu variable,
instead of this sequence:

 return __get_cpu_var(var);

 ffffffff8102ca2b:	48 8b 14 fd 80 09 74 	mov    -0x7e8bf680(,%rdi,8),%rdx
 ffffffff8102ca32:	81 
 ffffffff8102ca33:	48 c7 c0 d8 59 00 00 	mov    $0x59d8,%rax
 ffffffff8102ca3a:	48 8b 04 10          	mov    (%rax,%rdx,1),%rax

We can get a single instruction by using the optimized variants:

 return percpu_read(var);

 ffffffff8102ca3f:	65 48 8b 05 91 8f fd 	mov    %gs:0x7efd8f91(%rip),%rax

I also cleaned up the x86-specific APIs and made the x86 code use
these new generic percpu primitives.

tj: * fixed generic percpu_sub() definition as Roel Kluin pointed out
    * added percpu_and() for completeness's sake
    * made generic percpu ops atomic against preemption
