The patch titled
     Alpha: increase PERCPU_ENOUGH_ROOM
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     alpha-increase-percpu_enough_room.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: Alpha: increase PERCPU_ENOUGH_ROOM
From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Module loading on Alpha was failing with error "Could not allocate 8 bytes
percpu data".

Looking at dmesg we have the below error "No per-cpu room for modules."

Increase the PERCPU_ENOUGH_ROOM in a similar way as x86_64
