Duh a  patch did not make it due to XXX in the header.

I will put this also on git.kernel.org slab tree branch cpudata


x86_64: Strip down PDA operations through the use of CPU_XXX operations.

The *_pda operations behave in the same way as the CPU_XX ops. They both access 
data
that is relative to a segment register. So strip out as much as we can.

What is left after this patchset are some special pda ops for x86_64

        or_pda()
        test_and_clear_bit_pda()
