Subject: [PATCH] percpu,lockdep: implement and use is_static_percpu_address()

lockdep has custom code to check whether a pointer belongs to static
percpu area which is somewhat broken.  Implement proper
is_static_percpu_address() in percpu and replace the custom code.

This wasn't the cause this time but I'll queue the fix in percpu tree
anyway.

Thanks.
