[PATCH 05/10] alloc_percpu: add align argument to __alloc_percpu.

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Wed Feb 18 2009 - 07:08:35 EST


From: Rusty Russell <rusty@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This prepares for a real __alloc_percpu, by adding an alignment argument.
Only one place uses __alloc_percpu directly, and that's for a string.

tj: af_inet also uses __alloc_percpu(), update it.
