__attribute_used__ isn't really what we want. If a statically
defined per cpu variable isn't used in the C file then gcc
should be allowed to remove it. It's not used after all.
What we need is a way to tell the compiler that an inline
assembly uses a variable without passing any kind of address
of the variable to it. The solution is the "X" constraint.
While I was at it I cleaned things up a bit, I don't like
the #undefs in percpu.h. Patch is attached, I will include
it in my next update for Andrew.

blue skies,
Martin.
