Linus Torvalds 55e0715f61 Merge branch 'x86-percpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip
* 'x86-percpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip:
  x86, percpu: Collect hot percpu variables into one cacheline
  x86, percpu: Fix DECLARE/DEFINE_PER_CPU_PAGE_ALIGNED()
  x86, percpu: Add 'percpu_read_stable()' interface for cacheable accesses
