Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Reduce footprint of xics_ipi_struct

From: Anton Blanchard <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 12 Jan 2010 21:58:05 +1100

Right now we allocate a cacheline sized NR_CPUS array for xics IPI
communication. Since irq_stat is now PowerPC specific and using
DECLARE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED (which should mean remote writes to
this should not conflict with other per cpu data), we can put it in there.

On a kernel with NR_CPUS=1024, this saves quite a lot of memory:

   text    data     bss      dec         hex    filename
8767779 2944260 1505724 13217763         c9afe3 vmlinux.irq_cpustat
8767555 2813444 1505724 13086723         c7b003 vmlinux.xics

A saving of around 128kB.
