[thisops uV2 01/10] percpucounter: Optimize __percpu_counter_add a bit through the use of this_cpu() options.

From: Christoph Lameter
Date: Fri Nov 26 2010 - 16:11:45 EST


The this_cpu_* options can be used to optimize __percpu_counter_add a bit. Avoids
some address arithmetic and saves 12 bytes.

Before:


00000000000001d3 <__percpu_counter_add>:
1d3: 55 push %rbp
1d4: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp

1d9: 41 54 push %r12
1db: 53 push %rbx
1dc: 48 89 fb mov %rdi,%rbx
1df: 48 83 ec 08 sub $0x8,%rsp
1e3: 4c 8b 67 30 mov 0x30(%rdi),%r12
1e7: 65 4c 03 24 25 00 00 add %gs:0x0,%r12
