This patch series reverts a set of changes that consolidated per-CPU
storage structures in the openvswitch module.
The original changes were intended to improve performance and reduce
complexity by merging three separate per-CPU structures into one, but
they have changed openvswitch to use static percpu allocations, and
exhausted the reserved chunk on module init.
This results in allocation of struct ovs_pcpu_storage (6488 bytes)
failure on ARM.
The reverts are applied in reverse order of the original commits.

ovs_pcpu_storage"
