Subject: [PATCH] Alpha increase PERCPU_ENOUGH_ROOM
Sending it again marking Jay Estabrook
-aneesh
Module loading on Alpha was failing with error
"Could not allocate 8 bytes percpu data".
Looking at dmesg we have the below error
"No per-cpu room for modules."
Increase the PERCPU_ENOUGH_ROOM in a similar way as x86_64
