Not sure if anybody is looking into this.  Just tried a compile of generic
and allmod.  The differences are not that significant with the exception
of per_cpu__kmem_cache_cpu at 0x28a0.  A couple other low-hanging fruit
here are per_cpu__shadow_flush_counts and per_cpu__mmu_gathers each of
which takes approx 16k.

Thanks,
