In general we prefer to have separate patches for just moving things
around and real new functionality.

What macros are that?  You should probably just turn them into normal
functions unless they're performance-critical.

In fact I don't like the SGI pda at all - DEFINE_PER_CPU for each individual
member isn't anything less performant but much more managable.  But
that's not a complaint to you but the core SGI plattform people.
