H A Dcpuidle.cdiff 4a6f4fe8377720e5a279fdbb769946c242e936d3 Mon Dec 06 18:16:24 CET 2010 Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> drivers: Replace __get_cpu_var with __this_cpu_read if not used for an address.

__get_cpu_var() can be replaced with this_cpu_read and will then use a single
read instruction with implied address calculation to access the correct per cpu
instance.

However, the address of a per cpu variable passed to __this_cpu_read() cannot be
determed (since its an implied address conversion through segment prefixes).
Therefore apply this only to uses of __get_cpu_var where the addres of the
variable is not used.

V3->V4:
- Move one instance of this_cpu_inc_return to a later patch
so that this one can go in without percpu infrastructrure
changes.

Sedat: fixed compile failure caused by an extra ')'.
