Merge branch 'for-2.6.38' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu
* 'for-2.6.38' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu: (30 commits) gameport: use this_cpu_read instead of lookup x86: udelay: Use this_cpu_read to avoid address calculation x86: Use this_cpu_inc_return for nmi counter x86: Replace uses of current_cpu_data with this_cpu ops x86: Use this_cpu_ops to optimize code vmstat: User per cpu atomics to avoid interrupt disable / enable irq_work: Use per cpu atomics instead of regular atomics cpuops: Use cmpxchg for xchg to avoid lock semantics x86: this_cpu_cmpxchg and this_cpu_xchg operations percpu: Generic this_cpu_cmpxchg() and this_cpu_xchg support percpu,x86: relocate this_cpu_add_return() and friends connector: Use this_cpu operations xen: Use this_cpu_inc_return taskstats: Use this_cpu_ops random: Use this_cpu_inc_return fs: Use this_cpu_inc_return in buffer.c highmem: Use this_cpu_xx_return() operations vmstat: Use this_cpu_inc_return for vm statistics x86: Support for this_cpu_add, sub, dec, inc_return percpu: Generic support for this_cpu_add, sub, dec, inc_return ... Fixed up conflicts: in arch/x86/kernel/{apic/nmi.c, apic/x2apic_uv_x.c, process.c} as per Tejun.
