[PATCH 2/2] Use the new percpu interface for shared data -- version 3

Currently most of the per cpu data, which is accessed by different cpus, has a cacheline_aligned_in_smp attribute. Move all this data to the new per cpu shared data section: .data.percpu.shared_aligned. This will seperate the percpu data which is referenced frequently by other cpus from the
