But that won't work because the compiler can still cache &per_cpu__x.
I guess I have to do this:
#define __get_cpu_var(var, cpu) \
(*(__typeof__(&per_cpu__##var))({ \
void *__ptr; \
asm("addi %0,13,per_cpu__"#var"@tprel" \
: "=r" (__ptr)); \
__ptr; \
}))
That means we lose the possible optimization of combining the addi
into a following load or store. Bah. However, I guess it's still
better than what we do at the moment.
