SubjectRe: [PATCH] unbreak alpha percpu

Hmm. I certainly personally _much_ prefer this version.

It looks like this actually simplifies things for S390 too (no more
simple_identifier_##var games), and generally just looks better. And
seeing that the S390 special case is no longer S390-specific is also a
good sign, imho.

Sorry for including the whole message, but I'm adding s390 and percpu
people to the cc. Guys - original uncorrupted patch on lkml.
