Merge branch 'for-3.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu
Pull single percpu update from Tejun Heo:
"Just a single patch to update type verification macro for percpu
accessors.
Christoph is trying to replace __get_cpu_var() with this_cpu accessors
which needs this update. There are still some issues to be resolved
but eventually the conversion patches are likely to be routed through
different trees, so I think it'd be convenient to merge this commit
early"
