My understanding is that prior to linux kernel commit
dd17c8f72993 ("percpu: remove per_cpu__ prefix.") per_cpu_var(),
which was included in v2.6.34, was used to wrap per cpu variables
In order to allow Open vSwitch to compile against v2.6.33
and earlier use per_cpu_var() and in order to allow compilation
with latter kernels provide a per_cpu_var() which performs
an identity map.
In the case of v2.6.32 the kernel does not supply this_cpu_{read,inc,dec}
and the compat code for RHEL6 in datapath/linux/compat/include/linux/percpu.h
is used.
Fixes: 60759b2b9d0c ("datapath: Remove recirc stack depth limit check")

* I was searching for an approach that would not involve
updating actions.c but I was not able to find one.
* This problem has been present since around August 2014,
perhaps an easier approach would be to simply drop support for
v2.6.32 and v2.6.33 Kernels.
* This problem appears to be present in both master ranch-v2.4
