- * @phdr defines the output PHDR to use if not blank.  Be warned that

- * section in the linker script will go there too.  @phdr should have
- * a leading colon.
- *
- * Note that this macros defines __per_cpu_load as an absolute symbol.
- * If there is no need to put the percpu section at a predetermined
