Subject: Re: [patch 05/14] percpu: Use a Kconfig variable to configure arch
 specific percpu setup

Second portion. Add a new seg_offset macro to calculate the offset. This 
can be avoided if the linker relocates the per cpu area to zero. Includes 
a patch to read trickle count via both methods to verify that it actually 
works. Both patches on top of the per cpu cleanup patches that I sent 
today too.


x86_64: Make the x86_32 percpu operations usable on x86_64

Calculate the offset relative to gs in order to be able to address
per cpu data using the x86_64 per cpu macros.

The subtraction of __per_cpu_start will make the offset based
from the beginning of the per cpu area. That is where gs points to.
