    [PATCH] DECLARE_PER_CPU/DEFINE_PER_CPU patch · a2314817
    Rusty Russell authored
    This old __per_cpu_data define wasn't enough if an arch wants to
    use the gcc __thread prefix (thread local storage), which needs to
    go *before* the type in the definition.  So we have to go for a
    DECLARE macro, and while we're there, separate DECLARE and DEFINE,
    as definitions of per-cpu data cannot live in modules.  This also
    means that accidental direct references to per-cpu variables will
    be caught at compile time.
